Ingredients

  • 200g brown basmati rice
  • 175g mange tout
  • 200g frozen soy beans
  • 1½ tbsp sesame oil
  • 4 spring onions , finely sliced
  • large handful coriander , roughly chopped
  • 1 green chilli , finely diced
  • 400g raw large peeled prawns
  • 3 tbsp sweet miso paste (You'll find this with the Japanese ingredients. We used Clearspring white miso)
  • 2 tsp soy sauce
  • 2 tsp Japanese rice vinegar
  • 2 tsp soft brown sugar

Instructions

  • Place the brown rice in a pan with lots of cold water. Bring to the boil and simmer for 20-25 mins or until tender. Meanwhile, soak wooden skewers in some cold water (to prevent them burning). Add the mangetout and soy beans to the rice for the final 5 mins of cooking. Rinse under cold water, draining thoroughly.
  • Toss the rice with the sesame oil and mix in a large bowl with the spring onions, coriander, chilli and seasoning.
  • Heat a grill. Place the skewer ingredients in a bowl with a few grinds of black pepper. Give everything a good stir, making sure the prawns are well coated. Thread prawns onto the skewers and lay on a baking sheet. Grill for a couple of mins each side, turning, until prawns are cooked through. Serve with the rice salad and drizzle over any of the cooking juices.
