Who said pork mince is just for bolognese? Give this juicy protein a Japanese-inspired twist by lacing it with ginger and oyster sauce and serving over jasmine rice. Complete the dish with a necessary dollop of creamy aioli. We’ve replaced the mushroom in this recipe with zucchini due to local ingredient availability. It’ll be just as delicious, just follow your recipe card!

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

• In a medium saucepan, bring the water to the boil. Add jasmine rice. Stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. • Cook for 10 minutes, then remove pan from heat. Keep covered until rice is tender and the water is absorbed, 10 minutes.

TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don’t peek!

• Meanwhile, thinly slice red onion (see ingredients). • In a small bowl, combine the vinegar and a generous pinch of salt and sugar. Scrunch sliced onion in your hands, then add to pickling liquid. Add enough water to just cover onion. Set aside.
