The rice is so fluffy that it’s cuddling the fresh prawns in a warm hug. Let those flavours embrace you with Caribbean jerk seasoning and roast veggies with a zap of corn salsa and aioli drizzled over at the end.
We’ve replaced the couscous in this recipe with brown rice due to local ingredient availability. It’ll be just as delicious, just follow your recipe card!

• Thinly slice leek. Finely chop garlic. Grate carrot. Drain sweetcorn. • In a large bowl, combine mild Caribbean jerk seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. Add peeled prawns and toss to coat.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Cook sweetcorn until lightly charred, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl. • To the charred corn, add a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season and toss to combine.
TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the corn kernels are "popping" out.
• In a medium saucepan, heat the butter and a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook carrot, leek and garlic, stirring, until softened, 4-5 minutes. • Add the water and chicken-style stock powder and bring to the boil. Add rice, and stir to combine. • Cover with a lid and remove from heat. Set aside until all the water has absorbed, 5 minutes. Fluff up with a fork, add a drizzle of olive oil and season to taste.
• Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook prawns, tossing, until pink and starting to curl up, 3-4 minutes (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded).
TIP: The spice blend will char slightly in the pan, this adds to the flavour!
• Remove pan from heat, add the honey and toss prawns to coat.
• Divide veggie rice between bowls. Top with Caribbean prawns and charred corn salsa. • Serve with garlic aioli. Enjoy!
