• Finely chop garlic. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add jasmine rice, the water and a generous pinch of salt and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to low and cover with a lid. • Cook for 12 minutes, then remove from the heat and keep covered until the rice is tender and the water has absorbed, 10-15 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don't peek!
• While the rice is cooking, trim and halve green beans. Cut carrot into half-moons. • In a small bowl, combine the honey and soy sauce. • In a second small bowl, combine Japanese dressing and mayonnaise.
Little cooks: Take charge by combining the sauces!
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Cook carrot, stirring, until softened, 2 minutes. • Add green beans and honey-soy mixture and cook, tossing, until tender, 4-5 minutes. • Transfer to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
• Meanwhile, lightly crush black peppercorns with a pestle and mortar, or in their sachet using a rolling pin. • In a medium bowl, combine the salt, crushed peppercorns, Southeast Asian spice blend and plain flour. Add beef strips to the spiced flour mixture, tossing to coat.
Little cooks: Take the lead and help crush the peppercorns!
• Wipe out the frying pan and return to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • When the oil is hot, cook beef strips, tossing, in batches (this helps the beef strips stay tender!) until browned and cooked through, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Divide the garlic rice between bowls. • Top with the honey-soy veggies and salt and pepper beef. • Sprinkle with crushed peanuts. Top with the Japanese mayo to serve. Enjoy!
Little cooks: Work your magic and add the finishing touch by sprinkling the peanuts and adding the Japanese mayo!
