Difficulty

Easy

Thick white bread toasted and spread with homemade pandan coconut egg jam, a Thai café morning favourite.

Ingredients

  • 600g beef sirloin
  • 300g roti dough
  • a handful of sliced lemongrass
  • 2 tsp white pepper
  • 3 tbsp neutral vegetable oil
  • 1 cup bean sprouts, sliced
  • a handful of fresh mint, chopped
  • a drizzle of crispy fried shallots

Instructions

  1. 1

    Gather and prep the glutinous rice and large prawns, measuring everything out so it is ready to go.

  2. 2

    Heat coconut oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat until warm but not smoking.

  3. 3

    Add the sliced lemongrass and Thai eggplant, cooking gently until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Stir in the large prawns, season with dried shrimp, and cook until just done, about 5 mins.

  5. 5

    Warm the glutinous rice alongside, turning once, until heated through and lightly toasted.

  6. 6

    Plate the glutinous rice and spoon the cooked mixture over the top.

Tips

Keep the heat moderate so the large prawns cooks through gently without drying out or turning rubbery.

A squeeze of citrus or a sprinkle of mint just before serving brightens up the whole plate.
