I have to say I was pretty chuffed with myself - after yesterday's two consecutive popcorn + soda pop with the movie dinners (not identical mind you, the first one was butter flavour+solo+welcome to the chtlis and the second one was caramel and butter flavour+champagne flavoured soda+Dean Spanley) some cooking was in order, and this was a big hit with the audience (sadly, just myself). Anyhow, here's how to do it, all measures are approximate of course.
Ingredients:
200 g scampi - the nice ready-cooked kind from the frozen foods counter, it's not like I'm that awful man from Hell's kitchen or anything. Defrost them by all means.
4 dl fresh spinach leaves.
3-4 dl leftover cooked rice.
some tablespoons of sunflower oil
1 tablespoon of sesame oil
a good few drops of chili oil
1 tsp sambal olek
2 garlic cloves
Fry the garlic in the oil in a wok pan, add first the scampi and then the spinach and wok until the spinach is limp. Then add the rice and cook until all is warm. Season with salt if you wish.
The result came out really hot and extremely satisfying, especially with the strong tasting ginger beer I found in the supermarket - to quote John Travolta in Broken Arrow in the scene where they just blew up a nuclear bomb: "I say God Damn what a rush!"
