Method

Place the rice into a saucepan and add enough water to come 2 centimetres above the rice level. Bring to a rolling boil then cover and turn the heat to the lowest setting. Cook without uncovering for any reason for 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and without uncovering, allow to stand for 5 minutes. Uncover and gently fluff up the rice with a fork but don’t mash the rice grains. Put in a bowl in the fridge to chill

When rice is cool, heat 3 tablespoons of canola oil in a wok or frying pan over a moderate heat and add the onion, garlic, lemon juice, carrot and ginger. Stir fry for 10 minutes or until the onion is soft. Add the liquid mix, the beans and rice and mix well. Stir fry for 5 minutes or until the rice is very hot and the beans just cooked.

Add the mung bean sprouts and the lettuce and mix well. Stir fry for 2-3 minutes until the sprouts and lettuce are hot and just wilted. Taste and season with salt.

Divide the rice mixture between plates, top with fried egg, crispy shallots, coriander and sweet chilli sauce on the side. Enjoy!
