A quick and easy one pot dish.
A good way to let my LO consume a balanced and nutritious meal with ingredients from several food groups.

Ingredients:


  • Cooked rice, according to personal appetite (Slightly more than 1/2 a cup for my LO)
  • 1 large prawn, shell and vein removed
  • 1/2 a long bean, chopped
  • 3 florets of cauliflower, steamed
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tbsp butter
  • Cheddar cheese, shredded 
  • Some Italian herbs and ground black pepper for seasoning
  • Olive oil, for stir frying


  1. Preheat oven to 160°C.
  2. Cut prawn into small pieces and marinade with some ground black pepper.
  3. Heat up olive oil, stir-fry chopped long beans and prawn pieces til 80% cooked. Set aside.
  4. Heat up butter and sauté garlic til fragrant. Stir in cooked rice and stir-fry til rice is fragrant and coated with butter.
  5. Add in prawns, long beans and cauliflower. Season with Italian herbs and ground black pepper. Mix well.
  6. Transfer half of the rice into an oven safe ramekin. Sprinkle some shredded cheese and mix well.
  7. Add in remaining rice and top with shredded cheese. 
    You may sprinkle some olive oil and more herbs, if you like, before covering the rice with cheese.
  8. Bake in preheated oven til cheese is melted but not golden brown. This way, you'll have a creamier cheese taste. Serve.
