Product Information

Jamie's Quick and Easy Egg fried rice is not only designed to bring you happiness, but is a great dish if you are looking to show off your cooking skills to an audience. Lightly grease the bottom and sides of a 1-litre loaf tin with a little butter – I use a folded-up piece of kitchen paper to do this. Instead of the pecans, you could try chopped peanuts, walnuts, hazelnuts, dried fruit or chocolate, or a sprinkling of chocolate chips – reduce food waste by using up what you have in the cupboard.

If you’re freezing individual slices, wrap them in greaseproof or beeswax paper before putting them in an airtight container or a ziplock bag. Getting kids excited about food, where it comes from and how to cook it, gives them a better chance of being healthier and happier in the long run.

This is a super-tasty treat and a great way to use up overripe bananas – eat this with a nice, hot cup of tea and you’ll be in heaven. If using, chop the pecans on a chopping board using the cross-chop method (or you could bash them with a rolling pin), then fold them through the mixture. Make sure you supervise them when using heat or sharp utensils like knives and box graters, and teach them about the importance of washing their hands before they start, and after handling raw meat and fish, as well as other basic hygiene rules.

To check if it’s done, stick a cocktail stick or skewer into the middle of the loaf, remove it after 5 seconds and if it comes out clean the loaf’s cooked; if it’s slightly sticky it needs a bit longer. Decorate your people using dried fruits, nuts and coconut for a healthier treat that tastes fantastic.

Jamie has some great tips and tricks to making the quickest, easiest and tastiest egg fried rice, all with only 5 ingredients!

It’s always good to start small, with jobs such as mixing and measuring, then progress to elements of a recipe, then go on to slightly trickier techniques over time.

Jamie wholeheartedly believes that cooking is up there as one of the most valuable skills you can teach a child. If you’re freezing a whole loaf, wrap it in greaseproof and then again in foil, or pop it into a large resealable bag.
