• Finely chop garlic. In a medium saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. • Cook garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add basmati rice, 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 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!
• Meanwhile, drain pineapple slices. Roughly chop tomato and cucumber. • Pick and thinly slice mint leaves. Zest then slice lime (see ingredients) into wedges. • In a large bowl, combine beef strips, mild Caribbean jerk seasoning, and a drizzle of olive oil. • Heat a large frying pan over high heat. Cook pineapple slices until lightly charred, 2-3 minutes each side.
• When the rice has 5 minutes remaining, wipe out frying pan then return to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • When oil is hot, cook beef strips, tossing, in batches until browned and cooked through, 1-2 minutes.
TIP: Cooking the meat in batches over a high heat helps it stay tender.
• In a medium bowl, combine pineapple, cucumber, tomato, mint, lime zest, a good drizzle of lime juice, and a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. • Divide garlic rice between bowls. Top with Caribbean beef and pineapple salad. • Serve with coconut sweet chilli mayonnaise and any remaining lime wedges. Enjoy!
