Cooking Steps

1

• In a medium saucepan, add the water (for the rice), then bring to the boil. • Add basmati rice and a pinch of salt. 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 water is absorbed, 10 minutes. TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don't peek!

2

• Meanwhile, thinly slice brown onion. • Grate carrot. Finely chop garlic. • Trim green beans and slice into thirds.

3

Custom Recipe: If you've swapped to beef strips, cook green beans, 2-3 minutes, then add beef strips, tossing occasionally, 1-2 minutes.

4

• Reduce heat to medium-high, then stir in the butter, middle eastern seasoning, the honey, currants, tomato paste and garlic. Cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add stock concentrate and the water (for the beef). Bring to a simmer and cook until slightly thickened, 3-4 minutes. Season to taste. TIP: Add a splash more water to loosen the sauce, if needed!

5

• While the sauce is simmering, stir carrot, onion and baby spinach leaves through the rice. • Season with salt and pepper.

6

• Divide pilaf rice between bowls. Top with Moroccan-spiced beef and tear over parsley. • Serve with Greek-style yoghurt. Enjoy!
