Ingredients

Servings:
2
300g raw prawns, peeled and deveined
200g cooked brown rice (about 80g dry)
1 ripe avocado, sliced
1 Lebanese cucumber, diced
100g edamame (frozen, thawed)
2 tbsp soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 tsp rice wine vinegar
1 tsp sriracha
1 tsp sesame seeds
2 spring onions, sliced

Method

1

Mix soy sauce, sesame oil, rice wine vinegar, and sriracha in a small bowl to make your dressing.

2

Cook prawns in a hot pan with a little oil for 2–3 minutes each side until pink and cooked through.

3

Warm rice and divide between two bowls.

4

Arrange prawns, avocado slices, cucumber, and edamame on top of the rice.

5

Drizzle dressing over everything. Top with sesame seeds and spring onion.

6

Serve immediately — avocado discolours if left too long.

💡 Chef's Tips

Frozen prawns work perfectly here. Thaw in cold water for 15 minutes. Much cheaper than fresh and identical nutritionally.
