Chinese Beef & Capsicum Stir-Fry
with Garlic Rice & Sesame Seeds
All good dishes come with a bed of jasmine rice sitting perfectly in the bottom of your bowl. This fluffy and fragrant rice absorbs all of the Chinese flavours packed into the beef mince and with a sprinkling of chilli flakes and sesame seeds, you've got the crunch and heat factor turned up a notch as well.

Cooking Steps
• Finely chop garlic. • In a medium saucepan, heat the plant-based butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. Cook half the garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add the water and a generous pinch of salt to pan and bring to the boil. • Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. Cook for 12 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and all the water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!
• Meanwhile, thinly slice capsicum. • Thinly slice carrot and zucchini into half-moons. • In a small bowl, combine plum sauce, Asian stir-fry sauce, the soy sauce, the vinegar, sesame oil and a splash of water. Set aside. • Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Toast sesame seeds, tossing, until golden, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl.
• Return frying pan to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Add capsicum, zucchini and carrot and cook until tender, 5-6 minutes. • Add remaining garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Transfer to a bowl.
• Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook beef mince, breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 4-5 minutes.
• Return veggies to the pan and add plum mixture, cooking, until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes.
• Divide garlic rice, beef mince & capsicum stir-fry between bowls. • Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and chilli flakes (if using) to serve. Enjoy!
