My nannny Kak Timah used to make this for me to take to school. Whenever I asked "nasi goreng apa tu? (what kind of fried rice is that?) and her answer was always "nasi goreng macam- macam ada!"(fried rice with all sorts in it!) With some leftover cooked rice and some sambal tumis in the fridge, it was easy to recreate the dish that brings back many fond memories.....
I am looking forward to the Easter/Anzac long weekend and there will be a few Malaysian meals, please let me know if you have any special request.
you'll need;
2 cups of cooked rice
oil for cooking
1 shallot, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
10 prawns, shelled and roughly chopped
1/2 chicken breast, diced
a handful of green beans, cut at an angle
2 tbs of light soy
2 tbs of kecap manis (sweet soy)
2 to 3 tbs of sambal tumis
salt and white pepper to taste
1 red chili, sliced
2 spring onions, chopped
fried eggs to serve
fried shallot to serve
lime or lemon wedges to serve
extra sambal tumis to serve
Prepare the vegetables.
Roughly chop prawns and dice the chicken breast.
Saute shallot and garlic with 2 tbs of cooking oil for a minute or until light golden then add in the chopped prawns and chicken. Continue to cook for a minute or 2.
Add rice and mix well, breaking up lumps as you go. Next throw in the green beans and continue to cook for a further minute on high heat.
Add seasonings and cook for a minute more, finally add in the chopped spring onions and chili slices. Check for seasonings.
Serve immediately with a fried egg, lemon wedge and extra sambal tumis on the side.
