Home-style Fried Rice in King Soy Sauce

 

Serves 2 people

 

 Ingredients

1 shallot

4 spring onions

1 small bunch of coriander

2 Cantonese-style sausages

1 handful of fresh king prawns

300g cooked rice (that has been left to cool)

2 eggs

​

Seasoning

Salt

Light soy sauce

Dark soy sauce

​

Peel the shallot, slice thinly and fry in vegetable oil untilbrown. (The oil will be used to fry the rice later).

 

Shell the prawns and put in boiling water for 4-5 minutes,

then leave to cool.

 

Slice the sausages and spring onions.

 

Use the oil from the shallots you fried earlier to fry the

sausage slices and crack 2 eggs into the pan.

 

Add cooked rice when the egg is about 50% cooked then

reduce the heat to medium.

 

Fry the rice until it becomes soft and each grain is separate.

 

Then add prawns, salt and light soy sauce, and continue to

fry for a minute before adding a generous splash of dark

soy sauce.

 

IMPORTANT: fry for 30 seconds after adding the dark

soy sauce and press the rice flat with the spatula in the

pan. Flip the rice after a few seconds letting the rice on the

surface be seared by the pan.

 

When the rice is moderately seared, add chopped spring

onions and lightly diced coriander (don’t pan fry coriander

for too long, as it makes it lose the fragrance).
