Cooking Steps

• Finely chop garlic. • In a medium saucepan, melt the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. • Cook garlic 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. • Keep covered until rice is tender and 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 cucumber (see ingredients) into rounds. • In a medium bowl, combine the vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt. • Add cucumber to pickling liquid. Add enough water to just cover cucumber. Set aside.

TIP: Slicing the cucumber very thinly helps it pickle faster!

• Thinly slice carrot into half-moons. • Roughly chop Asian greens. • Cut Japanese tofu into 2cm cubes. • In a medium bowl, combine tofu, Southeast Asian spice blend (see ingredients) and a drizzle of olive oil. • Cut chicken breast into 2cm chunks.

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. • When oil is hot, cook chicken, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a plate. • Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook tofu, tossing, until browned, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.

• Return pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook carrot, tossing, until tender, 3 minutes. Add Asian greens and cook until just wilted, 1-2 minutes. • Remove pan from heat, then add sweet chilli sauce and the soy sauce, tossing the veggies to coat.

• Thinly slice long chilli (if using). Drain pickled cucumber. • Divide garlic rice between bowls. Top with veggies, chicken and tofu. Drizzle over sesame dressing. • Garnish with pickled cucumber, chilli and crispy shallots to serve. Enjoy!
