Cooking instructions

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

1

Boil half a kettle

Peel and finely slice your red onion[s]

Deseed your pepper[s] (scrape the seeds and pith out with a teaspoon) and slice into thin strips

Step 1
2

Chop your tomato[es] into wedges

Peel and finely chop (or grate) your garlic

Step 2
3

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a generous drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium-high heat

Once hot, add the sliced onion with a generous pinch of salt and cook for 4-5 min or until starting to soften

Step 3
4

Heat a pot with a lid with a large knob of butter and a drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium heat

Once melted, add your cumin seeds and cook for 1 min or until starting to sizzle

Once sizzling, add your basmati rice, stirring to coat the grains in the butter and oil

Step 4
5

Add your basmati rice and cauliflower rice to a pot with a lid with 160ml [250ml] [300ml] cold water and bring to the boil over a high heat

Once boiling, reduce the heat to very low and cook, covered, for 10-12 min or until all the water has absorbed and the rice is cooked

Once done, remove from the heat and set aside (lid on) to steam until serving – this is your jeera rice

Step 5
6

Once the onion has softened, add the sliced pepper and tomato wedges to the pan and cook for 4-5 min further or until starting to soften

Meanwhile, dissolve your vegetable stock mix in 200ml [260ml] [340ml] boiled water and stir in your tomato paste and a pinch of sugar – this is your tomato stock

Step 6
7

Add the chopped garlic, ginger paste, curry powder and chilli flakes (can't handle the heat? Go easy!) to the pan, give everything a good mix up and cook for 1 min or until fragrant

Drain your king prawns

Add the drained king prawns and tomato stock to the pan and cook for 4-5 min further or until the sauce has thickened and the prawns are cooked through – this is your king prawn jalfrezi

Step 7
8

Serve the king prawn jalfrezi over the jeera cauliflower rice

Tip: For fancy presentation, press the rice into a small bowl and turn out

Enjoy!
