Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

Before you start

  • Bring a medium saucepan filled with salted water to a boil
  • Pull out a sieve, a grater, a large frying pan, a large bowl, a small bowl & a measuring jug

Get the rice on

  • Add the rice to the saucepan and boil for 30-35 mins, until cooked, then drain

Make the peanut dressing

  • Zest and halve the lime
  • In the small bowl, mix the peanut butter with 1 tbsp water (1/2 tbsp for 1 person) until smooth, then stir in the honey and tamari. Set aside

Get sizzlin'

  • Heat the large frying pan with 1/2 tsp oil on medium-high heat
  • Season the pork with salt and pepper. Once the pan is hot, add the pork and cook for 4 mins, per side, until golden brown. Add 100ml water (50ml for 1 person) and continue to cook for 11 mins, until cooked through. Once cooked, leave to rest

Make the slaw

  • Meanwhile, coarsely grate the carrot. Trim and finely slice the cabbage, along with the spring onions and sugar snaps. Roughly chop the coriander
  • Add all to the large bowl with the lime juice and zest. Season with salt and pepper and toss to combine

Plate up

  • Check your meat 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
  • Thinly slice the pork steaks against the grain
  • Stir any pork resting juices through the rice, then share between plates, alongside the pork and slaw. Drizzle over the peanut dressing
