Cooking Instructions
- Boil a kettle. Heat a small saucepan filled with salted boiling water on high heat. Add the rice and boil for 25-30 mins, until cooked, then drain.
- Thinly slice the onion and garlic. Cut the carrot into 1/2cm-thick discs (peel optional). Halve the mangetout lengthways. Thinly slice the courgette into half-moons.
- Heat a medium frying pan with 2 tbsp oil on medium-high heat. Add the vegetables and garlic and cook for 5 mins, until soft. Then, add the prawns and cook for 5 mins, until pink and cooked through. Season with sea salt and black pepper.
- Make the sauce; mix the cornflour in a small bowl with the tamari and juice from the lemon. Add the sauce to the pan, stir and cook for 2-3 mins, until the sauce thickens.
- Serve the lemon, garlic and tamari prawns alongside the rice.
