Ingredients
- 1/2 tbsp groundnut oil x2
- 2 large sweetcorn cobs
- 125 g shiitake mushrooms, sliced
- 4 cm piece of ginger, peeled and finely sliced
- 3 tbsp light soy sauce
- 4 medium eggs
- 150 g mangetout
- 100 g pickled red cabbage, drained
- 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil (optional)
- 2 packs 250g microwave wholegrain rice, cooked to pack instructions
- 150 g carrot spaghetti or shredded carrot
- 2 tbsp chopped peanuts
- 3 spring onions, trimmed and finely sliced
- 4 tbsp chilli sauce, plus extra to serve
Instructions
- Rub 1 tbsp groundnut oil over the sweetcorn, season and put on a baking tray. Grill on a medium-high heat, turning every 90 seconds for 6 minutes, or until evenly browned. Keep warm.
- In a frying pan, heat 1 tbsp groundnut oil. Add the mushrooms and fry for 2 minutes, then the ginger and fry for a further 3 minutes. Add 1 tbsp soy sauce and tip into a bowl. Keep warm.
- Wipe out the pan. Add 1/2 tbsp groundnut oil, crack in 2 eggs and fry over a medium heat. Once the whites are set,* remove with a slotted spoon and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining eggs.
- Meanwhile, in a pan of simmering water, blanch the mangetout for 2 minutes, or until just tender. Drain well and toss with the sesame oil, if using, and 1 tbsp soy sauce.
- Cook the rice following pack instructions. To serve, divide the rice between 4 bowls. Shave the sweetcorn kernels from the cobs and divide between the bowls. Mix the carrots with the peanuts and 1 tbsp soy sauce, then add to the bowls. Add the rest of the veg in segments, top each with a fried egg, spring onions and 1 tbsp chilli sauce, with extra to serve.
