  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings 1x
  • Diet: Low Salt

Description

A comforting bowl of fluffy jasmine rice topped with creamy cheesy scrambled eggs and juicy sautéed prawns. This quick and satisfying dish comes together in just 20 minutes and delivers rich flavor, soft texture, and a touch of seafood sweetness in every bite.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice
  • 4 large eggs
  • 200 grams raw prawns, peeled and deveined
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onions

Instructions

  1. Place a nonstick skillet over medium low heat and warm a saucepan if reheating the rice.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
  3. Add olive oil to a separate pan over medium heat. Add the prawns and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side until pink and opaque. Remove and set aside.
  4. Melt butter in the nonstick skillet over low heat. Pour in the egg mixture and gently stir with a spatula, folding slowly. When the eggs begin to softly set, sprinkle in the shredded cheddar cheese and continue folding gently.
  5. Remove the eggs from heat while they are still slightly glossy and soft.
  6. Spoon warm rice into serving bowls, top with the cheesy scrambled eggs, and arrange the cooked prawns over the top.
  7. Sprinkle chopped green onions over everything and serve immediately while warm.

Notes

  • Cook the eggs over low heat to keep them soft and creamy.
  • Do not overcook the prawns as they can turn rubbery quickly.
  • Reheat leftover rice before assembling for the best texture.
  • Freshly grated cheese melts more smoothly than pre-shredded cheese.
