1 Cook the rice following pack instructions. Drain. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a frying pan, and fry the onion and garlic for 5 mins. Toss the fish with the curry powder and remaining oil, then add to the pan and cook for 5 mins, stirring.

Reduce the heat to as low as it will go, then cover the pan. 3 Crack 1 egg into a small dish. Bring a pan of water to a simmer, then stir the water to create a whirlpool. Gently tip in the egg and poach for 3-4 mins before removing with a slotted spoon and draining on kitchen paper. Repeat with the remaining eggs.
