Eh-Co drizzled fried rice...yummm

Let it never be said that our chilli oil was kept secret. Knock up a mean dish of fried rice and experience the excellence which Eh-Co brings. A distinctly hot and flavourful addition which takes nothing away from the actual flavours of the dish.

 Ingredients (serves 2)

  • 1 tbsp, vegetable oil
  • 2 tbsp Eh-Co Original (Habanero) flavour
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 20g peas
  • 10-12 king prawns
  • 250g, long grain rice, cooked and cooled
  • 1/2 tsp salt, or to taste
  • 1 tbsp soya sauce, or to taste
  • White pepper, to taste
  • Spring onions, sliced

  Prep

 1) Prepare rice, see recipe   for boiled rice. Leave it to   cool before cooking as it   will be easier to cook with.

 2) Ensure you have taken   off the shell off your king   prawns and that they are   cooked. If you have bought them raw, take off its shell, boil some water in a pan and boil the king prawns for about two minutes until pink. 

TIP: If the king prawns are grey in colour they are raw, if they are pink they have been pre-cooked. Also make sure you lay the prawn flat and make a cut down its side and take out its intestines. You will see this as a black line running down the side of the king prawn.

Ready? Let's cook!

1) Heat oil in a wok, on high heat until hot.

2) Pour beaten egg into wok, stirring constantly. When egg has cooked a little into a scramble (about 30-45 seconds) add frozen peas, king prawns and stir for a minute.

3) Add the chilli oil Eh-Co Original and stir well

4) Next add in the boiled rice into the wok and fry for three minutes.

5) Add salt and soy sauce to taste and fry for another three minutes. Serve.

6) Garnish with spring onion and more chilli oil Eh-Co to suit.
