Method

  1. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a wok or large frying pan over a low heat. Beat the eggs together and season. Pour into the pan and cook for 1-2 mins, then flip and cook on the other side for 1 min. Tip onto a chopping board, slice into thin strips and set aside.
  2. Fry the cashew nuts for 2-3 mins until toasted, then set aside. Heat 1 tbsp oil in the pan over a high heat, then add the pepper, mangetout and spring onions and stir-fry or 3-4 mins until softened. Heat the rice to pack instructions.
  3. Add the peas, prawns and five spice to the pan and stir-fry for 2-3 mins. Add the soy sauce and hot cooked rice, fry for 1 min, then add the egg strips and stir to combine and heat through. Serve immediately.
