 Q: Dear sister, Asalaamu alaikum. Do you have a good recipe for savoury rice? I used to use the packet one but now would like to make my own. Much appreciated. Umm Muhammad, Cairo. 
A: This is my recipe for a quick and tasty savory rice. It serves 6-8 adults Ingredients: - 4 cups cooked rice
- (basmati or other long-grained rice)
- 2 eggs, scrambled
- 2 spring onions, ]nely chopped
- Soy sauce to taste
- 1 cup cooking shrimps/ prawns
- 1 cup petit pois (precooked)
-
Method: - Loosen the rice with a fork, heat 1 tbs butter/margarine in wok or cast iron pan on medium heat.
- Throw in the spring onions, stir-frying for 1 min.
- Then add the shrimps and continue to stir for 2-3mins.
- Add half the rice, peas, scrambled egg and some soy sauce and stir until everything is thoroughly mixed. Add remaining ingredients then continue stirring for a few minutes until combined.
- This fuss-free dish can be served on its own or with a light meat or fish dish.
