Cooking Steps
• Finely chop garlic.
• In a large saucepan, melt the butter with a dash
of olive oil over medium heat. Cook garlic until
fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
• Add the water and a generous pinch of salt and
bring to the boil.
• Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and
reduce the heat to low. Cook for 10 minutes,
then remove from the heat and keep covered
until rice is tender and water is absorbed,
10 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so
don’t peek!
• While the rice is cooking, trim and halve the green beans. • Roughly chop the Asian greens. • In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce and honey. Set aside.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. • Cook green beans, tossing, until tender, 3-4 minutes. • Add Asian greens are cook until wilted, 1-2 minutes. • Add the honey-soy mixture and cook until bubbling, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
• In a medium bowl, combine the salt, cracked black pepper, Southeast Asian spice blend and plain flour. • Add the peeled prawns to the spiced flour and toss to coat.
• Wash and dry the frying pan, then return to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • When the oil is hot, pick up the prawns using tongs and shake off any excess flour back into the bowl. Add the prawns, tossing, until pink and starting to curl up, 3-4 minutes. TIP: Add a drizzle more oil between batches if necessary! Cooking the meat in batches over a high heat helps it stay tender.
• Divide the garlic rice between plates. Top with the honey-soy veggies and salt and pepper prawns. Garnish with the roasted peanuts. Serve with the garlic aioli. Enjoy!

Review summary
Updated on July 2026- Flavour: The honey-soy greens, garlic rice, and spiced prawns work beautifully together, with the Southeast Asian spice blend adding bold, distinctive flavour. Some found the spice on the prawns a little overpowering on its own, but it balanced well when eaten alongside the other components.
- Ease of prep: Most found this a quick and easy weekday dinner, though a few noted it took a little longer to prepare than expected.
- Suggestions: Be sure to shake off excess flour from the prawns before cooking, as leaving too much on can make them dry and intensify the seasoning. Some reviewers added extra prawns from the freezer or a small tin of sweetcorn to bulk out the dish.
- Portions: Most found the serving size satisfying, though a few felt it wasn't quite enough for four people.
