Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by cooking the 2 cups of jasmine rice according to the package instructions until fluffy and tender.
  2. In a nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the cooled jasmine rice, pressing it down firmly to form a flat layer.
  3. While the rice crisps up, mix together 1 tablespoon of honey, 1 teaspoon of low sodium soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon of sesame oil in a small bowl.
  4. In a separate pan, heat the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add 1 teaspoon of minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds.
  5. Add the 3 cups of peeled and deveined prawns to the pan, cooking them for 3-4 minutes until they turn pink and opaque.
  6. Pour the prepared honey-soy-sesame sauce into the pan with the cooked prawns and stir gently to combine.
  7. Once the rice is crispy on the bottom, layer the prawns and their sauce on top of the rice, spreading them evenly.
  8. Garnish your Prawn Crispy Rice with chopped green onions and serve immediately while it’s hot and crispy.
