To cook the rice, place the washed rice in a medium pan, add the water. Bring to the boil, then turn the heat to low and place a lid on top. Cook covered on low heat for 15 minutes. Remove the lid, fluff up the rice and transfer to a tray, cool for 10-15 minutes at room temperature.
Place the prawns in a glass bowl add all the ingredients of the marinade. Marinade for 10 minutes.
Heat a wok over high heat, add the rapeseed oil, add the chill, spring onion and wok fry for a few seconds, then add the marinated prawns and toss cooking for 1 minute until the prawns start to turn pink. Quickly follow in with Shaoxing rice wine or dry sherry. Add the shredded Pak Choy, toss cooking for 30 seconds until wilted. Toss in the cooked rice and season with oyster sauce, Soy Sauce and toss cooking until all the ingredients are combined well. Season with toasted sesame oil and ground white pepper. Garnish with toasted pine nuts and dress with your favourite chilli oil. Serve immediately.
Ching’s Tip – Work quickly to prevent from overcooking the prawns and burning rice. It’s important to have all the ingredients laid out in order of adding them so you can work quickly.
