Cooking Steps

1

Finely chop garlic. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter (for the rice) with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. Cook garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the water and a generous pinch of salt, then bring to the boil. Add jasmine rice. Stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. Cook for 12 minutes, then remove from heat. Keep covered until rice is tender and all water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes.

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

Meanwhile, drain sweetcorn. Roughly chop baby spinach leaves. Heat a large frying pan over high heat. Cook corn kernels until lightly browned, 4-5 minutes. Transfer charred corn to a medium bowl, then add baby spinach. Add a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. Toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the kernels are "popping out."
