Before you start

  • Pull out a large frying pan & a grater

Start the prep

  • Coarsely grate the carrot (peel optional). Dice the pepper into 1cm chunks. Trim and halve the beans. Halve the lime

Get sizzlin'

  • Heat the large frying pan or wok with 1 tsp olive oil on high heat. Once hot, add the pork and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 3-4mins, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until starting to brown
  • Reduce the heat to medium-high and add the pepper, carrot and beans. Cook for 3-4 mins, until softened. Season with salt and pepper

Build the flavour

  • Add the ginger & garlic paste, lemongrass puree and chilli paste (for those who'd like the heat) to the pork pan. Cook for 1 min more
  • Stir in the rice and a splash of water, breaking the rice up with a spoon. Add the tamari, honey and the juice from half the lime. Mix to combine

Fry the egg

  • Push the fried rice to one side of the pan, then crack in the egg. Break up the yolk with a wooden spoon, then leave to cook for 1-2 mins, until firm
  • Once cooked, break up the egg and mix into the rice. Season with salt and pepper

Plate up

  • Share the pork nasi goreng between bowls. Garnish with the remaining lime, cut into wedges
