This fantastic Thai prawn fried rice recipe is the ultimate weeknight family dinner reading in 20 minutes.

Ingredients

1 tbsp sunflower oil

1 red pepper, deseeded, quartered and cut into diagonal strips

5 spring onions, whites roughly chopped, greens finely chopped

100g/4oz broccoli, cut into small florets

2 tbsp green curry paste

about 200g pack raw king prawns, thawed if frozen

250g pack pre-steamed coconut basmati rice (we used Tilda)

100g/4oz frozen peas

100g/4oz beansprouts

handful chopped basil

fish sauce, to taste

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a wok and stir-fry the pepper, whites of the onions, and broccoli for a few mins to soften. Stir in the curry paste and prawns, and cook for 1 min more.

  2. Add a splash of water, then crumble in the coconut rice, breaking it up with a spoon. Tip in the peas, beansprouts and greens of the onions, and stir-fry until everything has heated through, then add the basil and fish sauce to taste.
