0.5 pcs Capsicum (medium, finely diced)

1 tbsp Rice Vinegar

Instructions
1
Prepare the Prawns and Eggs
Pat the prawns dry with a paper towel. In a small bowl, toss them with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Set aside.
Heat 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in the beaten eggs and scramble for 1-2 minutes until just cooked. Remove from the wok and set aside.
2
Cook the Prawns
In the same wok, add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and increase the heat to high.
Add the seasoned prawns and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and are cooked through. Do not overcook.
Remove the prawns from the wok and set them aside with the scrambled eggs.
3
Sauté Aromatics and Vegetables
Add the remaining vegetable oil to the wok. Once shimmering, add the minced ginger, garlic, and green chilies. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the spring onion whites, diced carrots, and french beans. Stir-fry on high heat for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Add the diced capsicum and cook for another minute.
4
Combine Rice and Sauces
Add the cold, cooked rice to the wok. Use your spatula to break up any clumps.
Toss the rice with the vegetables for 1-2 minutes to heat it through.
Pour the soy sauce, rice vinegar, and red chili sauce over the rice. Add the salt and black pepper powder.
Stir-fry continuously on high heat for 2-3 minutes, ensuring every grain of rice is coated with the sauces.
5
Finish and Serve
Return the cooked prawns and scrambled eggs to the wok.
Add the spring onion greens and the toasted sesame oil.
Toss everything together for one final minute to combine all the flavors.
