Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 shallots, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 1 tsp mild curry powder
  • 600g cold cooked rice (basmati or jasmine would work best)

  • 4 tbsp soy sauce
  • pinch sugar
  • finely sliced spring onion and chopped coriander

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a wok or frying pan. Sizzle the shallots until tinged then add the garlic and stir-fry for 1 min. Then add the curry powder and rice, and stir-fry to separate the grains.
