Ingredients

  • 2 tsp Cooks' Ingredients Kimchi Paste
  • 1 tbsp reduced salt light soy sauce
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 4 tsp sunflower oil
  • 2 cloves Cooks' Ingredients Garlic, crushed
  • 10g Cooks' Ingredients Root Ginger, cut into matchsticks

  • 3 salad onions, sliced, whites and greens separated
  • 250g pack Tilda Microwave Pure Basmati Rice
  • ½ lime, juice
  • 2 British Blacktail Medium Free Range Eggs

Method

  1. Mix the kimchi paste, soy sauce, sesame oil and 1 tbsp water together, then set aside. Heat 2 tsp sunflower oil in a large wok or frying pan over a high heat. Stir fry the garlic and ginger for 30 seconds.

  2. Add the Chinese leaf lettuce and salad onion whites, and fry for 2 minutes until starting to wilt. Break up the rice in the pack, then tip into the pan with the kimchi-soy mixture and stir fry for about 2 minutes until piping hot. Take off the heat, stir through the lime juice and divide between two warm plates or bowls.
