Hits & tips
Eggs - If you don't feel confident enough to cook the eggs as directed, omit step 6 and bake the rice for 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and leave it to stand for 10 minutes with the lid still on. While it's resting, poach 4 eggs separately and serve as per step 8, placing the poached eggs on top.
Easy swaps - Swap the pork mince for chicken mince or even diced chicken thigh or breast for a slightly different flavour and texture in the dish.
Add the heat - If you like a kick of heat, add 1-2 finely chopped small red chillies when serving.
Serving suggestion - Serve this Nasi Goreng tray bake as is or add an extra salad on the side. Any type of lettuce leaf would be fine.
Storage - Store in the fridge for 3-4 days. Leftovers need to be reheated until piping hot. The cooked rice dish can be frozen without the fresh salad.
