Cooking instructions

Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.

1.

Boil half a kettle

Rinse your brown rice, add it to a pot with plenty of cold water and bring to the boil over a high heat

Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and cook for 20-25 min or until it's tender with a slight bite

Once cooked, drain, return it to the pot and keep covered until serving

Step 1
2.

Meanwhile, slice (don't chop!) your garlic finely

Chop your cherry tomatoes in half

Cut your lemon[s] in half

Chop your parsley finely, including the stalks, separating the stalks from the leaves

Step 2
3.

Squeeze 1 tbsp [1 1/2 tbsp] [2 tbsp] lemon juice into a large mixing bowl

Combine with 2 tbsp [3 tbsp] [4 tbsp] olive oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper then set aside – this is your lemon dressing

Wash your salad and pat dry with kitchen paper, then chop it roughly

Step 3
4.

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with 2 tbsp [3 tbsp] [4 tbsp] olive oil over a medium-low heat

Once hot, carefully add the sliced garlic and cook until very slightly golden then remove with a slotted spoon and set aside on some kitchen paper – these are your garlic crisps

Sprinkle your garlic crisps with a pinch of salt and set aside until serving, keeping the pan and garlic oil for later

Step 4
5.

Once your brown rice has been cooking for 20 min, return the pan of garlic oil to a medium-high heat

Once hot, add the chopped cherry tomatoes and parsley stalks with a generous pinch of salt and cook for 3-4 min or until they're beginning to break down

Step 5
6.

Drain your jumbo prawns, then add them to the pan with your cayenne pepper (can't handle the heat? Go easy!) and cook for 5-6 min or until the prawns are cooked through

Add 50ml [75ml] [100ml] boiled water and cook for 1-2 min further until the tomatoes and garlic oil form a thick sauce

Once thickened, stir through the remaining chopped parsley and remove from the heat – these are your Andalusian-style jumbo prawns

Step 6
7.

Toss your chopped salad and brown rice together in the bowl of lemon dressing – this is your brown rice salad

Cut the remaining lemon[s] into 1 wedge per person

Step 7
8.

Serve your Andalusian-style jumbo prawns with the sauce over your brown rice salad

Serve with a lemon wedge and garnish with the garlic crisps

Enjoy!
