Cooking Steps
1
- Add the water to a medium saucepan and bring to the boil.
- Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low.
- Cook for 10 minutes, then remove the pan from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and all the water is absorbed, 10 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek
2
- Meanwhile, thinly slice cucumber into rounds. Thinly slice long chilli (if using).
- In a medium bowl, combine the vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt.
- Add cucumber and chill to pickling liquid. Add enough water to just cover cucumber. Set aside.
TIP: Slicing the cucumber very thinly helps it pickle faster!
3
- Thinly slice carrot into half-moons. Slice brown onion into thin wedges. Slice lime into wedges.
- Cut chicken thigh into 2cm chunks.
- In a large bowl, combine chicken, tamarind seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil.
4
- In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Cook carrot and onion until just browned, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
- Return frying pan to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, cook chicken, tossing occasionally, until browned and chicken is just through, 5-6 minutes. Cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it is no longer pink in the middle
5
- Add rendang paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
- Reduce heat to medium-low, then add coconut milk, cooked veggies and a splash of water, simmering until curry is browned and thickened, 4-5 minutes.
- Remove pan from heat and stir through a squeeze of lime juice. Season to taste.
6
- Drain spicy pickles.
- Divide rice and chicken rendang between bowls.
- Serve with spicy pickled cucumbers. Enjoy!
