As with most rice dishes, it can also be eaten on its own, either hot or cold, so it goes just as well in the lunch box.

The vegetables are just a suggestion, of course you can vary the recipe to suit your own tastes.

This amount will serve three people.

Ingredients

• 1 small onion
• 1 small carrot
• 10 gm ginger
• Five spice powder
• Ground cloves
• ½ cup peas or beans
• ½ Tbsp curry powder
• ¼ cup raisins
• ¼ cup fruit chutney
• 1 cup cooked brown rice
• 3 small egg whites
• ¼ cup Carnation evaporated milk

Method

• Preheat the oven to 180° or 160° fan forced.
• Chop the onion finely, and grate the carrot.
• Fry the onions, ginger, five spice and cloves in a little oil for a few minutes, until the onions are soft.
• Put the mixture in a large bowl, and add all other ingredients except the egg whites and evaporated milk.
• Whisk the egg whites for about 30 seconds, and mix in the evaporated milk.
• Add the egg white and milk mixture to the rice and mix together.
