Description
- 1 green pepper, sliced
- 1 red pepper, sliced
- 1 knob ginger, grated
- 1 clove garlic, grated
- 1 lime
- 300ml water
- 1/2 vegetable stock pot
- 150g basmati rice
- 1 star anise
- 80g mango chutney
- 1 tsp mustard seeds
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 25g desiccated coconut
- 150g tiger prawns
- 6 curry leaves
Ingredients
- Halve the peppers, remove the cores and slice them as thin as you can. Peel and grate the ginger and garlic. Zest and juice the lime.
- Boil the water in a large saucepan over a high heat. Add the vegetable stock pot and stir to dissolve. Add the rice and star anise. Cover with a lid and lower to a medium heat. Leave to cook for 10 mins and then remove from the heat. Leave to one side for another 10 mins.
- Meanwhile in a small bowl mix the mango chutney with the mustard seeds, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic, a pinch of lime zest and the lime juice. Set aside.
- Heat a frying pan over a medium heat and toast the coconut until golden, 2-3 mins. Be careful not to burn it! Transfer to a bowl, wipe out the pan with some kitchen paper and return to a high heat with a splash of oil.
- When the oil is hot stir-fry the peppers until softened and browned, about 5-7 mins. Add the prawns and curry leaves and cook for another 3- 4 mins. Remove from the heat and pour the dressing into the pan.
- Remove the star anise from the rice and fluff it with a fork. Stir in half the coconut.
- Divide the rice with two plates, spoon the stir fry on top, drizzle over any leftover dressing and finish with the remaining coconut.
