Cooking Instructions
Instructions for 2 people (double for 4)
1
Boil a full kettle
Bash the lemongrass with a rolling pin
Separate the tough outer layer[s] from the softer inner core of the lemongrass and set aside for later
Chop thesofter inner core[s] in half
2
Add the basmati rice, the tough outer layer[s] of the lemongrass and 300ml [600ml]cold water to a pot with a lid and bring to the boil over a high heat
Once boiling, reduce the heat to very low and cook, covered, for 10-12 min or until all the water has absorbed and the rice is cooked
Once cooked, remove from the heat and keep covered until serving – this is your lemongrass rice

Meanwhile, peel (scrape the skin off with a teaspoon) and finely chop (or grate) the ginger
Peel and finely chop (or grate) the garlic
4
Add 400ml [800ml] boiled water to a pot over a medium heat with the chopped inner core[s] of the lemongrass and 1/2 tsp [1 tsp]sugar and bring to the boil over a high heat
Cook for 2 min until fragrant
Meanwhile, slice the baby button mushrooms finely
5
Once fragrant, add the chopped ginger, garlic, and half the chilli flakes (can't handle the heat? Go easy?) to the pot and cook for 1 min further
Add the sliced baby button mushrooms, Sriracha and fish sauce and cook for 2 min or until the mushrooms have started to soften
6
While the mushrooms soften, roughly chop the coriander, including the stalks
Slice the lime[s]into 4 [8] wedges
7
Add the king prawns to the pot with the juice of 2 [4]lime wedge[s] and cook for 3-4 min or until the prawns are cooked through – this is yourprawn tom yum soup
