Cook the brown rice according to package instructions.
Blanch the green beans. This means heat up a pot with really salty water. Once it’s boiling like crazy throw in the beans. Cook them for about 3-5 minutes, so they don’t ‘squeak’ anymore.
Throw the peas in for just a few seconds at the end. Then cool everything down as fast as you can.The best way to do this is to get a bowl with cold water and some ice cubes.
Boil the eggs for 6 minutes. Also cool them down and then peel the skin off when they’re lukewarm.
Rip the mozzarella into pieces and halve the eggs.
Cut the beans roughly in half, mix in a bowl with the peas and sprinkle with a bit of salt, pepper, olive oil. Chop the basil and add that too. Mix everything together, except the eggs. Serve with brown rice, and finish with the eggs on top. Done!
