1.25 cup

⅓ cup
warm water
2 tbs

(Contains Gluten, Wheat;)
¼ cup
water (for the sauce)
• Rinse and drain white rice. Finely chop garlic. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. • Cook half the garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the water (for the rice) and a generous pinch of salt and bring to the boil. • Add white rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and all the water is absorbed, 10 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!
• Meanwhile, trim and halve green beans. Cut carrot into thin sticks. Thinly slice spring onion. • In a large bowl, combine basic sponge mix and olive oil (2 tbs for 2 people / 1/4 cup for 4 people), rubbing together using finger tips, until dough resembles breadcrumbs. • Add spring onion, the warm water, a generous pinch of salt and bring dough together (don't worry if dough is flaky at this point). • Lightly dust a work surface with half of the plain flour. Tip out dough and knead until smooth, 2-3 minutes. Cover and set aside. • In a medium bowl, combine peeled prawns, Asian BBQ seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil.
TIP: Dust with extra flour during the kneading process if dough is too sticky.
• In a medium bowl, combine prawns, Asian BBQ seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. Set aside. • In a medium heatproof bowl, combine ginger paste, the remaining garlic and a drizzle of olive oil. Microwave in 10 second bursts until fragrant. • Add sriracha and the brown sugar and stir until combined. Season to taste.
• Dust a work surface with the remaining flour, then divide dough into 6 golf ball-sized pieces. • Pat and flatten the dough, then use a rolling pin to roll each piece into 12cm rounds, roughly 0.5cm thick. • In a large frying pan over medium heat, heat enough olive oil to cover the base of the pan. • Cook pancakes until browned, 2-3 minutes each side. Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate. Add extra oil as necessary.
• While pancakes are cooking, in a second large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive over high heat. • Cook carrot and green beans until tender, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside. •Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook prawns, tossing, until pink and starting to curl up, 3-4 minutes. • Return cooked veggies and all prawns to pan, and stir in oyster sauce and the water (for the sauce), until bubbling, 1 minute. Season with pepper.
TIP: Cooking the meat in batches over a high heat helps it stay tender.
• Divide garlic rice and Chinese spiced prawns between bowls. • Serve with spring onion pancakes and homemade chilli sauce. Enjoy!
