I was cracking my head on what to cook for dinner one day and came across this simple recipe...
Minimum work required but surprisingly yields a yummy dish in almost no time
So here is the recipe, if you're interested in trying it :)


Ingredients:
4 cups cooked rice, refrigerated for 2-3 hours. For best results, overnight.
2 tbsp. ginger, grated
2 eggs, whisked
1 cup prawns, shelled and cleaned
½ cup spring onion leaves
1 tsp. red chilli paste
3 tbsp. oil
salt to taste.

Method:
Heat 2 tbsp. oil in a wok and saute ginger for 20 seconds.
Add prawns and saute for 2 mins.
Add egg and stir vigorously to scramble. Remove from pan.
Heat 1 tbsp. of oil in the pan and add the red chilli paste, and salt.
Stir in the rice and saute for a minute.
Add the prawn egg mixture and the spring onion leaves. Saute for 30 seconds
You're ready to feast! Serve hot!

* you can add in blanched bean sprouts if you want that extra crunch!
