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, cover with the lid and cook for 12 mins.
Remove the pot from the heat and keep covered for another 12 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).
Trim the green beans.
Place a pan over medium-high heat (no oil).
Once hot, add the beef mince, thai spice mix and green beans and fry until browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
Halve the cabbage, cut out and discard the tough core, then thinly slice. Add the cabbage to the beef and cook until just tender, 2-3 mins.
While the veg fries, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Peel and grate the ginger. Use a teaspoon to easily scrape away the peel.
Cut the lime into quarters.
Stir in the grated garlic and ginger. Cook until fragrant, 1-2 mins.
Stir the ketjap manis, honey, soy sauce and 50ml water (per 2P) into the pan. TIP: If your honey has hardened, pop it in a bowl of hot water for 1 min.
Cook until the sauce has thickened, 2-3 mins.
Taste and season with salt, pepper and a squeeze of lime juice, adding a splash of water if it's a little too thick.
When ready, share the rice between your bowls and top with the sticky honey beef.
Serve with any remaining lime wedges for squeezing over.
