Cooking Steps

1
1

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over a medium heat. Add the ginger lemongrass paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the coconut milk, the water (for the rice) and a generous pinch of salt. Stir, then bring to the boil. Add the basmati rice. Stir, cover with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 15 minutes, then remove the pan from the heat. 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, trim the green beans, then cut into thirds. Thinly slice the carrot.
