1 packet
Ginger Paste

1 drizzle

20 g
butter
(Contains: Milk;)
1.5 cup
water (for the rice)
½ tsp
brown sugar
2 piece
egg
(Contains: Eggs;)

• In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. • Cook garlic paste until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add basmati rice, the water and a generous pinch of salt. Stir, then bring to the boil. • Reduce heat to low and cover with a lid. Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from heat and 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, thinly slice celery. Cut carrot into half-moons. Trim green beans and roughly chop. • In a small bowl, combine ginger paste, crushed peanuts, hoisin sauce, soy sauce mix and the brown sugar. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook celery, carrot and green beans, tossing, until tender, 5-6 minutes. • Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to a bowl. Cover to keep warm. Little cooks: Take charge by combining the sauces with the peanuts!

• Return frying pan to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook veggie mince, breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 4-5 minutes (drain excess oil from pan for best results!). • Add sauce mixture and cook, stirring until bubbling, 30 seconds. Transfer to a bowl. Cover to keep warm. • Wipe out frying pan, then return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Crack in the eggs. Fry until the yolk is cooked to your liking, 4-5 minutes.
• Divide garlic rice between bowls. • Top with Vietnamese-style veggie mince, veggies and a fried egg to serve. Enjoy!
