Main | MOB

Ingredients

  • 500 g Beef Mince
  • 4 tbsp Sweet Chilli Sauce
  • 4 Cloves Garlic
  • 4 Spring Onions
  • 1 Head Broccoli
  • 200 g Long Grain Rice
  • 50 g Peanuts
  • 1 Avocado
  • 1 Lime
  • 1 Red Pepper
  • 2 tbsp Soy Sauce
  • Olive Oil
  • Salt
  • Black Pepper

Method

  1. Add the olive oil to a large frying pan set over a medium-high heat. Once hot, add the beef mince and smoosh it down with the back of a wooden spoon so it spreads into an even layer. Leave it to crisp up before breaking it apart. You may need to do this in two batches to get proper caramelisation. Cook until golden and crispy, then lift out with a slotted spoon and set aside.
  2. Meanwhile, finely slice the spring onions, separating the whites from the greens. Finely chop the garlic. Slice the pepper into thin strips. Cut the broccoli into small florets.
  3. Rinse the rice, then add it to a saucepan with salted water. Bring to the boil, cover with a lid and simmer for 6 mins. Add the broccoli on top, pop the lid back on and remove from the heat. Leave to steam for 10 mins until the rice is fluffy and the broccoli is tender. Finely zest the lime and stir it through the rice and broccoli.
  4. Return the frying pan to a medium heat. Add the garlic and the spring onion whites and cook for another 2 mins until fragrant. Then add the peppers and cook for another 5 mins until softened. Tip the beef back into the pan along with the sweet chilli sauce and soy sauce. Stir well to coat everything and cook for a couple of minutes until sticky and glossy. Season with black pepper.
  5. Roughly crush the peanuts. Slice the avocado, if using, and cut the lime into wedges.
  6. Divide the broccoli rice between bowls and top with the crispy sweet chilli beef. Finish with the crushed peanuts, spring onion greens and avocado. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing.
