Feel free to change anything in this recipe. That’s the whole point: what do you have in your kitchen/veggie basket/fridge/larder/pantry…. And use it.

For one person (so just do the Maths.... )

Kreacher’s ingredients

¾ dl rice (whichever you like -white, brown, red, black, long grain, round -  as long as it’s not sticky)

1 big clove of garlic, finely chopped

Same volume of fresh ginger root, finely chopped

1 big spring onion, chopped

1 egg, beaten

3 slices of lardy bacon stripes, sliced (optional; gammon is a good substitute, but we didn’t have any, or stripes of tofu)

A handful or two of peas (frozen, fresh (the best obv.) or tinned)

3-4 tbsp oil (rapeseed is good but peanut is nice as well, and you might not need that much oil, it will depend on your meat and your pan)

(fresh herbs like coriander)

Working the Elf-Magic

Cook the rice as instructed on the package or the cooker or whatever you’re using.

In the meantime, chop all ings.

In a frying pan, pour some oil and add the meat/tofu if you’re using any, fry gently for a couple of minutes, then add the garlic, spring onion and ginger. Fry on medium heat until it smells nice, but the garlic is not burnt (otherwise it goes meh and gives a nasty taste to your food). 

Add the beaten egg and scramble everything together until the egg bits don’t stick to each other. Add the peas and heat them, stirring regularly.

Add the rice and if necessary, oil. Fry gently for a small while, or until you reach the fryness you like.

Eat and enjoy.
