Instructions

  1. Make the sesame chilli oil first if you want it: put the sesame oil, garlic, chilli flakes, sesame seeds, ginger, five spice powder and soy sauce in a heatproof bowl. Heat the peanut oil in a pan until smoking and just bubbling, then carefully pour it over the spices and stir.
  2. Peel the prawns, cut down the back and remove the digestive tract. Chop 6 of the prawns into small pieces and chill all the prawns covered until needed.
  3. Mix the light soy sauce, oyster sauce, salt and white pepper for the sauce and set aside.
  4. Heat 1 tablespoon of the peanut oil in a wok over high heat. Add the beaten eggs and swirl into a thin omelette, folding the cooked parts as you go. Slide it out onto a board and roughly chop into large chunks.
  5. Add the rest of the peanut oil to the wok over medium-high heat. Add the prawns, minced garlic and the white parts of the spring onions and stir for 3 to 4 minutes, until the prawns are almost cooked through.
  6. Turn the heat to high, add the cooked rice and stir often for 2 minutes until hot all the way through.
  7. Pour in the sauce and stir it through the rice.
  8. Immediately add the frozen peas and bean sprouts and cook, stirring often, for 2 minutes.
  9. Return the chopped omelette to the wok with the green parts of the spring onions, stir well and heat for 1 more minute. Serve straight away, with a little chilli oil on top if you made it.
