Instructions
- Put 1 teaspoon Black peppercorns, 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg, 100 g Almonds, 1 teaspoon Ground turmeric, 1 teaspoon Sea salt and 1 teaspoon Chilli flakes into a pestle and mortar or food processor and combine – it doesn’t need to be completely smooth. Once combined, put into a bowl and set aside.

- Add the dry almond mix to the ginger/garlic and mix to form a paste. Set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon Olive oil in a pan and fry 150 g Chicken breast until cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
- Boil 100 g Brown rice according to the packet instructions. Drain and put to the side.
- Heat 1 tablespoon Olive oil in the pan and lightly fry 2 Onions and 10 Mushrooms until golden brown.
- Put 200 g Green beans on to boil.
- Add the paste to the onions and mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes.
- Add the rice and 200 ml Boiling water and continue to cook until the water has reduced.
- Add the coked chicken, 200 g King prawns and half the green beans and cook for a further 2 minutes.
- Whisk together 2 Eggs, 1 tablespoon Skimmed milk and 1 tablespoon Tamari sauce (optional).
- In a separate pan heat 0.5 tablespoon Olive oil and make an omelette with the whisked egg mix.
- Once the omelette is cooked, slice into 2x1 inch pieces.
- Serve the Nasi Goreng, topped with the chopped omelette and finely chopped Fresh coriander (cilantro).
Notes
- To keep it vegetarian, replace the meat and fish with courgette (zucchini), aubergine (eggplant), Portobello mushrooms and/or tofu.
- Don't freeze the omelette, simply make a new one when preparing leftovers.
- Add some spinach at the same time as the chicken/prawns for a green veggie boost.
- If you don't have tamari sauce you can use a low salt soy sauce, or omit this ingredient completely.
