Soft-Boiled Egg with Crisped Turmeric Rice and Sliced Cucumber
Enjoy a comforting Malay-inspired breakfast featuring a perfectly soft-boiled egg nestled atop crisped turmeric rice, accented with a drizzle of rich coconut milk, a hint of fiery sambal, and fresh, cool cucumber slices. A sprinkle of toasted peanuts adds a delightful crunch to this balanced, aromatic morning meal.
INGREDIENTS
1 large egg
120g cooked jasmine rice
1 tsp turmeric powder
2 tsp coconut oil
1/4 cup coconut milk
1 medium cucumber (sliced)
1 tbsp sambal
1/2 tbsp toasted peanuts
PREPARATION
Place the egg in a small saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 6 minutes for a soft-boiled consistency. Remove the egg and place in cool water before peeling.
In a bowl, gently toss the cooked jasmine rice with turmeric powder to evenly coat the rice.
Heat coconut oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the turmeric-coated rice and spread it out in a thin layer, pressing gently with a spatula to form a crisped layer on the bottom. Let it cook undisturbed for a few minutes until you notice a golden, slightly crispy texture.
Once the rice is crisped to your liking, remove the skillet from heat and drizzle the coconut milk evenly over the rice. Stir lightly to combine the flavors.
Plate the crisped turmeric rice and top it with the soft-boiled egg (sliced in half). Arrange the fresh cucumber slices on the side.
Finish the dish with a dollop of sambal and a light sprinkle of toasted peanuts for added crunch and Malay-inspired flavor accents.
