Cooking Instructions
Before you start
- Pull out 2 large frying pans, a large saucepan, a measuring jug & a sieve
Get sizzlin' & prep the veg
- Heat a large frying pan with 2 tsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pork and cook for 10 mins, stirring frequently until golden brown and cooked through. Season with salt and pepper
- Meanwhile, thinly slice the peppers. Cut the broccoli into small florets. Halve the lime
Prep the peanut sauce
- In the jug, combine 200ml hot water with the peanut butter. Mix until the smooth, then stir in the tamari, honey, ginger & garlic paste and the juice from the lime
- Add the curry powder (use half for a milder flavour) and pepper to the pork (make it kid friendly: leave the pepper out of the curry and serve as crunchy crudités on the side). Toss to coat and cook for another 2 mins
Cook the broccoli & heat the rice
- Bring the large saucepan with salted hot water to a boil. Add the broccoli and boil for 3-4 mins, until cooked, then drain
- Heat the other large frying pan on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the rice and break it up with a wooden spoon. Add a splash of water and cook for 2-3 mins, until piping hot. Alternatively, cook in the microwave as per package instructions
Finish & plate up
- Pour the peanut sauce into the pork pan and toss to combine. Simmer for 3-4 mins, until the sauce has thickened and coats the pork. Season with salt and pepper
- Check your pork is cooked through; it should be golden brown, steaming hot, the juices should run clear when cut and there should be no pink / rare meat inside
- Serve the pork into bowls, with the rice and broccoli alongside
