Method

  1. Heat the oil in a medium pan with a lid, add the onion and fry for 5 minutes until softened. Tip in the sausage and sizzle for a few minutes until it's browned and a bit crispy round the edges.
  2. Now add the rice and give everything a good stir. Boil the kettle and pour a mug of boiling water into the pan. Crumble in your stock cube and stir to dissolve completely.
  3. Turn the heat down until the liquid is gently bubbling, put a lid on the pan and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Stir in the peas, put the lid back on and cook for a further 5 minutes. Beat the egg with a little salt and pepper. Turn the heat up under the rice pan, drop in the egg and stir quickly until the egg has just set. Pile the steaming rice into a bowl and tuck in.

    This was quick to make and very simple but the end result wasn't fantastic. It was very sickly after a while and made loads! Maybe better as a side dish.

    I didnt have any peas so I used sweetcorn instead and this was very nice - it made a huge bowlful too! Very good for a quick, easy and tasty meal when you're on your own.

    I think I must have done something terribly wrong! The end product was sloppy and sticky - nothing like the picture where all the grains of rice appear dry and perfectly seperated. It didn't taste too bad but I agree with piddymonkey, it was a bit sickly and the portion was huge. I may try this again but but wouldn't rush to do it anytime soon!
