1 tin
coconut milk
1 packet
basmati rice
(May be present: Weizen, Gluten, Soja.)
1
carrot
2 clove
garlic
1
zucchini
1 tin
pineapple slices
1 packet
beef mince
1 packet
caramelised onion chutney
1 packet
tomato paste
1 bag
mint
1 sachet
mild Caribbean jerk seasoning
1
olive oil
¾ cup
water (for the rice)
½ cup
water (for the beef)
In a medium saucepan, add the coconut milk, the water (for the rice) and a generous pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, then add the basmati rice. Stir, cover with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 15 minutes, then remove the pan from the heat. Keep covered until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed, 10 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don't peek!
While the rice is cooking, grate the carrot. Finely chop the garlic. Roughly chop the zucchini. Drain the pineapple slices, then roughly chop. Heat a large frying pan over a high heat. Cook the pineapple until lightly charred, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl.
Return the frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When the oil is hot, cook the beef mince and zucchini, breaking up the mince with a spoon, until browned, 4-5 minutes. Add the carrot, garlic and mild Caribbean jerk seasoning and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
Add the caramelised onion chutney, tomato paste, the water (for the beef) and a pinch of salt to the beef. Stir to combine, then simmer until heated through, 1-2 minutes.
While the chilli is simmering, pick and thinly slice the mint leaves. To the bowl with the charred pineapple, add the mint and a drizzle of olive oil. Stir to combine. Season to taste.
Divide the Jamaican-spiced beef chilli and coconut rice between bowls. Serve with the pineapple-mint salsa.
