Cooking Steps

Cook the rice
1

• In a medium saucepan, heat the butter and a dash 
of olive oil over medium heat.
• Cook Hainanese paste until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
• Add jasmine rice, the water and a generous pinch 
of salt, stir, then bring to the boil.
• Reduce heat to low and cover with a lid. Cook for  
10 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed, 10 minutes.


TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!  

Get prepped
2

• Meanwhile, trim baby broccoli, halving any thicker 
stalks lengthways.
• Thinly slice cucumber into rounds.
• Thinly slice spring onion (reserving the white ends) 
and long chilli (if using).

Poach the prawn
3
  • Half-fill a large saucepan with water, add white ends of spring onion and a generous pinch of salt, then bring to the boil over high heat. 
  • Add prawns then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the prawns is cooked through, until pink and starting to curl up, 3-4 minutes. 
Steam the baby broccoli
4

• While chicken is poaching, add baby broccoli and 
a splash of water to a microwave-safe bowl, then 
cover with a damp paper towel.
• Microwave baby broccoli on high until just tender, 
2-4 minutes.
• Drain broccoli, then return to the bowl and cover to 
keep warm.

Prepare the sauces
5

• In a small heatproof bowl, microwave ginger 
lemongrass paste and a generous drizzle of olive 
oil until fragrant, 30 seconds. 
• Add remaining spring onion, season to taste with 
salt and pepper and stir to combine.
• In a second small bowl, combine soy sauce mix and 
a pinch of sugar.
• SPICY! Use less sriracha if you're sensitive to heat! In 
a third small bowl, add sriracha.


TIP: Cover the bowl with a lid or cling wrap as the paste 
might spatter! 

Finish & serve
6

• Using tongs, remove the chicken from the saucepan. 
Transfer to a chopping board and thinly slice.
• Divide fragrant rice, baby broccoli and fresh cucumber between bowls. Top with Hainanese prawns, then garnish with chilli.
• Serve with traditional three sauces. Enjoy!
