Cooking Steps

1
1

Finely chop the garlic. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over a medium heat. Add 1/2 the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the water, the salt and basmati rice, stir and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to low and cover with a lid. Cook for 10 minutes, then remove the pan from the 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, combine the soy sauce and the remaining garlic in a medium bowl. Add the pork strips and toss to coat.

Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the sesame seeds and cook until toasted, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl. Return the frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When the oil is hot, cook the zucchini until softened, 3-4 minutes. Add the snow peas and cook until softened, 1 minute. Add the Asian greens, ginger, and a splash of water and cook until tender, 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a medium bowl and cover to keep warm.
