  3. Add peas and cooked prawns and mix thoroughly for a further 2 minutes, season to taste.
  4. Remove from the pan, transfer to a bowl and keep warm.
  5. Put the wok back onto the heat, drizzle with olive oil and pour in the whisked egg moving pan around to spread the egg to the edges. Cook until just set. Transfer from the pan and place on a chopping board. Thinly slice the egg to make ribbons and add to the fried rice.

Easy Swap

Prawns could be swapped with any leftover roast chicken or pork. However, you can try a meat free  alternative with tofu or tempeh.

Top Tips

If you are using freshly cooked rice, make sure that after it is cooked it is placed on a tray to cool down and to evaporate the surface moisture of the rice. This ensures the rice does not become soggy when cooked.
