Cooking Steps

Rice Rice Baby
1

a) Boil a half-full kettle.

b) Pour the boiled water into a large saucepan with 1/4 tsp salt on high heat.

c) Add the rice and cook for 12-13 mins.

d) Once cooked, drain in a sieve and pop back in the pan. Cover with a lid and leave to the side until ready to serve.

Finish the Prep
2

a) In the meantime, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). 

b) Zest and cut the lime into wedges. Drain and rinse the chickpeas in a sieve.

c) Trim the pak choi, then separate the leaves. Cut any larger leaves in half lengthways down the middle.

Get Frying
3

a) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on high heat. Drain the prawns.

b) Add the prawns, pak choi and sliced mushrooms. Stir-fry until just soft, 5-6 mins.

c) Reduce the heat to medium-high, then stir in the red Thai style paste, Thai style spice blend (add less if you'd prefer things milder) and garlic. Stir-fry until fragrant, 1-2 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw prawns. Cook so they're opaque in the middle.

Simmer Simmer
4

a) Stir the coconut milk, soy sauce, chickpeas and sugar (see pantry for amount) into the veg. 

b) Bring to a boil, then lower the heat. Simmer until thickened slightly, 2-3 mins. 

Finishing Touches
5

a) While the curry simmers, crush the peanuts in the unopened sachet using a rolling pin.

b) When your rice is ready, fluff it up with a fork and stir through the lime zest. 

c) Stir a squeeze of lime juice from a lime wedge into the curry. Taste and season with salt, pepper and more lime juice if needed. 

Serve Up
6

a) Share the zesty rice between your serving bowls. 

b) Top with the Thai style prawn curry. 

c) Sprinkle over the peanuts and serve with any remaining lime wedges for squeezing over.

Enjoy!
