Cooking Steps

Make the Rice
1
  • Rinse the rice to remove excess starch. Pour 300ml cold salted water (per 2P) into a medium pot with a tight-fitting lid.
  • Stir in the rice and bring to the boil. 
  • Once boiling, lower the heat to medium and cover with the lid.
  • Leave to cook for 10 mins.
  • Remove from the heat and keep covered for 10 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).
Get Prepped
2
  • Meanwhile, trim the courgette and halve lengthways. Slice widthways into 1cm thick semicircles.
  • Trim the scallion and thinly slice, keeping the green and white portions separate.
  • Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
  • Zest and quarter the lime.
Chop the Veg
3
  • Trim the carrot and halve lengthways. Chop widthways into small pieces.
  • Stir the coconut milk (or shake the packet) to dissolve any lumps.
Start the Sauce
4
  • Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil
  • Once hot, fry the white portion of the scalliongarlic, carrots, courgette and sugar snaps until softened, 2-3 mins.
  • Stir in the korma paste, coconut milk and lemongrass paste.
  • Reduce the heat and simmer until the veg is tender, 8-10 mins.

NOTE: Adding chicken? Add it to the pan before the carrot and courgette, season with salt and pepper and cook for 5-6 mins. 

Finishing Touches
5
  • When everything is ready, squeeze the juice of half the lime wedges into the curry.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Stir the lime zest into the rice, fluffing it up as you go.
Garnish and Serve
6
  • Divide the rice between plates.
  • Top with the creamy courgette curry.
  • Sprinkle with cashews and sliced green scallion
  • Serve any remaining lime wedges alongside.
