Cooking Instructions
Before you start
- Bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil
- Pull out a peeler, a large frying pan, a large bowl, a sieve, a grater & a measuring jug
Get started
- Add the rice to the saucepan and boil for 25-30 mins, until cooked
- To the large bowl, add the beef and pat dry with kitchen paper. Add the cornflour and a generous pinch of salt. Toss to coat
- Heat the large frying pan with 1 tbsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the beef strips and cook for 8 mins, turning occasionally, until golden and cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside
Time to prep
- Meanwhile, peel and halve the onion, then finely slice. Cut the carrots into 1/2cm thick batons (peel optional). Trim and cut the green beans into thirds. Finely grate the garlic and ginger. Zest and halve 1 lime
- Combine the tamari and honey with 75ml hot water in the measuring jug
Build the flavour
- Reheat the large frying pan with 1 tbsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the onion and carrot and cook for 5-6 mins, until starting to soften. Season with salt and pepper
- Stir in the garlic and ginger and cook for 2 mins
Finishing touches
- Add the green beans to the rice pan for the final 5 mins, then drain together and return to the pan. Stir through the lime zest and season with a pinch of salt
- Add the tamari mixture to the frying pan and bring to a boil. Add the beef back into the pan and toss to coat
- Simmer for 2 mins, until the sauce has thickened, then remove from the heat. Add a squeeze of lime and season to taste with salt and pepper
Plate up
- Serve the beef and rice into bowls. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and garnish with the remaining lime, cut into wedges
