Cooking Steps

Boil the rice
1

Finely chop the brown onion. Finely chop the garlic (or use a garlic press). In a medium saucepan, melt the butter with a dash of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Add the onion and the brown mustard seeds and cook, stirring, until softened, 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the water and 1/2 the salt. Bring to the boil, then add the basmati rice. Reduce the heat to low and cover with a lid. Cook for 10 minutes, then remove 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!

Flavour the beef
2

While the rice is cooking, in a medium bowl, combine the tandoori paste, some Greek yoghurt (1 tbs for 2 people / 2 tbs for 4 people), the remaining salt and a good drizzle of olive oil. Add the beef strips, toss to coat and set aside.

Prep the Veggies
3

Finely chop the cucumber. Pick and finely chop the mint leaves. In a small bowl, combine the remaining Greek yoghurt, 1/2 the cucumber and 1/2 the mint. Season with salt and pepper and mix well. Set aside. Slice the cherry tomatoes in half. Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the flaked almonds and toast, stirring occasionally, until golden, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

Make the tomato salad
4

In a second medium bowl, combine the cherry tomatoes, remaining cucumber and remaining mint. Add the vinegar and a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and stir to combine.

Cook the beef
5

Return the frying pan to a high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the tandoori beef and cook, tossing often, until the beef is browned and cooked through, 1-2 minutes. TIP: Don’t worry if your beef gets a little charred during cooking. It adds to the flavour!

serve
6

Divide the garlic rice and beef tandoori between bowls. Top with the cucumber raita and tomato salad. Sprinkle with the toasted flaked almonds.
