Instructions
1
- Boil a large pot of salted water for the rice.
- Add the rice and cook for 12-15 mins.
- Drain in a sieve and pop back in the pot.
- Cover with a lid and leave to the side until ready to serve.
TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.
2
- Halve, peel and thinly slice the onion.
- Halve the bell pepper, remove the core and seeds and thinly slice.
- Trim and thinly slice the pak choi widthways.
- Peel and finely grate the ginger (use a teaspoon to easily scrape away the peel).
- Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).
3
- Place a medium pan over a medium-high heat (no oil).
- Once the pan is hot, add the beef mince and fry until browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks.
- Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
4
- Add the onion and pepper to the pan with a drizzle of oil if necessary.
- Cook until softened, 4-5 mins, stirring occasionally.
- Add the Thai spice and ginger and fry for 1 min then add the chicken stock along with 100ml water (double for 4p).
- Stir in the pak choi. Simmer until the liquid has reduced by half and the pak choi is tender, 3-4 mins.
5
- While everything cooks, zest and halve the lime.
- When the sauce has reduced, stir through the ketjap manis, a squeeze of lime juice and half the coriander.
- Remove from the heat, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Fluff up the rice with a fork and stir through the lime zest.
6
- Share the rice between bowls and serve the beef on top.
- Finish with a sprinkle of the remaining coriander.
- Chop any remaining lime into wedges and serve alongside.
