Ingredients
- 600g bones (for making broth)
- 6 large fried eggs
- 150g guava jam
- 300g boiled prawns, peeled and deveined
- 1 tsp ground cardamom
- 300g rice flour
- 1 tsp MSG (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Water (for broth and rice flour cakes)
Instructions
- Prepare the Broth: In a large pot, add the bones and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper, and let it simmer for about 2 hours to extract the flavors.
- Make Rice Flour Mixture: In a bowl, mix the rice flour, ground cardamom, and a pinch of salt. Gradually add water until you get a smooth batter.
- Cook Rice Flour Cakes: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour a ladleful of the rice flour mixture into the skillet, spreading it out to form a pancake. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Repeat this process until the batter is finished.
- Prepare Boiled Prawns: Once the broth is ready, strain it to remove the bones. In the strained broth, add the boiled prawns and cook for an additional 5 minutes until heated through.
- Fry the Eggs: In another skillet, fry the eggs sunny-side up until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
- Assemble the Dish: Place the rice flour cakes on plates. Top each cake with a generous serving of the boiled prawns and a fried egg. Drizzle with guava jam and sprinkle with a little extra cardamom if desired.
This British fusion dish is not only delicious but also a fun and interactive cooking experience. It brings together unique flavors that will surprise and delight your diners. Enjoy your culinary adventure!
