SPICY CHICKEN FRIED RICE

Instead of packaged pre-cooked rice, you may wish to cook-ahead 2 1/2 cups long-grain rice for this recipe. Spread cooked rice on tray, cover with absorbent paper; refrigerate overnight.

2 teaspoons peanut oil
2 eggs, beaten lightly
500 g chicken thigh fillets, sliced thinly
2 medium brown onions, chopped finely
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon cardamom seeds
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 bird's eye chilies, seeded, chopped finely
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 large red bell pepper, sliced thinly
115 g fresh baby corn, halved lengthways
500 g packet frozen pre-cooked rice
4 green onions, sliced finely
2 tablespoons ketjap manis
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh coriander leaves

Heat 1/2 teaspoon of the oil in wok or large pan, add half the egg, swirl so egg forms a thin omelette; cook until set.

Transfer omelette to board, roll, cut into thin strips. Repeat with remaining egg and another 1.2 teaspoon oil. Heat remaining oil in wok; stir-fry chicken and brown onion, in batches, until chicken is tender. Stir-fry spices, chilies and garlic in wok until fragrant. Add bell pepper and corn; stir-fry until just tender. Return chicken mixture to wok with omelette strips, rice, green onion, ketjap manis and coriander; stir-fry until hot.

Serves 4.
