Method

  1. Boil the rice following pack instructions, adding the peas for the final min. Drain.
  2. Heat half the oil in a wok. Pour in the egg and stir-fry until scrambled. Tip onto a plate and set aside.
  3. Wipe the wok with kitchen paper, then heat the remaining oil. Toss in the meat, garlic, spring onions and pepper, and stir-fry until the pepper starts to soften. Add the five-spice, rice, peas and soy, then stir-fry for 5 mins more. Finally add the beansprouts, if using, the egg and prawns, and stir-fry to heat through.

    I was thinking the same with the servings on this as well. I have been onto a site (Love food Hate waste) where it advises portion control, according to this site and i use it alot an adult would want 75g of rice, it also said for peas a portion would be 80g, so i think this may be a serving for one, when i make this i will double the amounts to serve two but would cut back the rice to 150g as i feel 200g for two people could be too much. Hope this is of some help.

    I used raw prawns and cooked them in with the vegetables. I also threw in a bit of fish sauce. This multiplies really easily and was great hot and cold over the next few days as lunches. Definitely adding to my regular recipes!
