Ingredients:

Serves: 4

12 King Prawns, peeled and deveined, cut into bite-sized pieces
2 cups cooked Basmati rice, chilled
1 cup wombok, shredded
1 large carrot, grated
3 Tbsp. vegetable oil
2 Tbsp. light soy sauce

Nasi Paste:

1 Brown onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic
1 inch piece ginger, sliced
2 long red chillies, chopped
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 tsp. ground coriander
1 tsp. ground turmeric
¼ cup vegetable oil

Garnish:

½ cup coriander leaves
¼ cup roasted granulated peanuts
2 eggs, fried
½ cucumber, halved and thinly sliced
2 Tbsp. Kecup Manis

Method:

In a food processor add all Nasi paste ingredients and blitz on high into a paste. Place into an airtight container and refrigerate. Leave ideally overnight.
In a wok over high heat, add 2 Tbsp. vegetable oil and nasi paste and fry until the oil splits away from the paste and darkens in colour, approximately 5 minutes. Add rice to wok and toss to coat evenly. Transfer to a large bowl and set aside.
Return wok to a high heat and add remaining 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil. Once oil is smoking, add prawns and toss to seal for approximately 15 seconds. Add wombok and carrot and toss to combine. Add soy sauce and stir-fry until vegetables soften slightly, approximately 1 minute. Add rice back to wok and mix through to combine. Season to taste.
Lay out onto a large platter and garnish with fried eggs, coriander leaves, sliced cucumber and drizzle of kecup manis. Serve immediately.
