Cooking Steps

Get Prepped

1

Rinse the rice to remove excess starch. Boil a large pot of salted water for the rice.
Add the rice and cook for 10-12 mins. Drain in a sieve and rinse with cold water to cool.
Meanwhile, halve, peel and thinly slice the onion. Quarter the lemon.
Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
Chop the tomato into 2cm chunks.

Time to Fry

2

Place a pan over medium-high heat (no oil).
Once the pan is hot, fry the mince, garlic, onion and Mexican spice mix until the mince is browned, 5-6 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw mince. Mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks.

Finishing Touches

3

Deglaze the mince with soy sauce and a squeeze of lemon juice.
Add the cheese, mix again and let it cool in the pan.
Once the rice is cooled, toss with the salad leaves, tomatoes and sesame oil.
Season to taste with salt, pepper and lemon juice.

Serve and Enjoy

4

Divide the rice salad between plates.
Top with beef mixture.
