Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 500 grams raw prawns, peeled and deveined
  • 3 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 4 cups cooked white rice (preferably one day old)
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 large carrot, diced small
  • 4 scallions, chopped
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a bowl, marinate the prawns with 1 tablespoon of gluten-free soy sauce and set aside for about 10 minutes.

Step 2

Beat the eggs in a small bowl and season with a pinch of salt. Heat a tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Scramble the eggs until fully cooked, then remove from the pan and set aside.

Step 3

In the same wok, add another tablespoon of oil, and increase the heat to high. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stir-frying for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the marinated prawns to the wok and stir-fry them until they turn pink and are cooked through, approximately 2-3 minutes. Remove the prawns from the wok and set aside.

Step 5

In the same wok, add the diced carrot, scallions (reserving a handful for garnish), and frozen peas. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 2 minutes or until they start to soften.

Step 6

Add the cooked rice to the wok, breaking up any clumps with a spatula. Stir vigorously to mix with the vegetables.

Step 7

Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of gluten-free soy sauce and sesame oil over the rice. Stir-fry everything together, ensuring the rice is evenly coated with the soy sauce and oil.

Step 8

Return the cooked prawns and scrambled eggs to the wok. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Stir-fry for another minute or until everything is well combined and heated through.

Step 9

Garnish with the remaining chopped scallions before serving. Serve hot and enjoy your gluten-free prawn fried rice!
