  1. Video tutorial: Crushing garlic

Method

  1. Boil a pan of water, then add the rice. Cook for 8-10 mins until cooked but still firm.
  2. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a pan. Fry the bacon pieces until crisp and tip onto a plate. Add the onion and garlic and fry until soft. Drain the rice then add to the pan with the crispy bacon, butter, frozen peas and chicken. Heat through, stirring all the time until piping hot. Stir in the chopped tomatoes, soy sauce and seasoning, if it needs it, to finish.

    Really yummy! A real staple because it can be just thrown together at the last minute!! It is also nice with a tablespoon of Thai fish sauce too!
