Chingri malai roti - [[king prawn]] [[roti]]: ([[Rice|rice]] cake with [[king prawns]]). This is my variation on [[Murghi roti]] but using king prawns instead of chicken. | |||
Try this using two pans, see Chef's notes below. | |||
Please be very careful if storing cooked [[Rice|rice]]. [[Refrigerate]] the moment it has cooled and use within 1 day | |||

Doing a 'freezer clean out', we made a marvellous version of this with 1 [[chicken]] breast and a bag of cooked red kidney beans. The chicken was thinly sliced and sautéed with lots of crushed [[garlic]] and the kidney beans fried with the chicken and mashed down a little - rather like [[re-fried beans]]. This was added in place of the normally cooked chicken in this recipe. | Doing a 'freezer clean out', we made a marvellous version of this with 1 [[chicken]] breast and a bag of cooked red kidney beans.

===A better way of cooking this=== | |||
After making variants of this for many years, I've discovered the best method of cooking is to spread the ingredients out on a lightly greased [[baking tray]] and bake at 220° C (425° F - gas 7) for 35 minutes, stirring up the contents every 10 minutes. It might be an idea with a meat other than crayfish, to add the meat (or prawns) for the last 10 minutes so they don't dry out. | |||
