Cooking Steps

1
1

• Finely chop garlic. • In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and a dash of olive oil over medium heat. Cook 1/2 the garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add jasmine rice, the water and a generous pinch of salt, then bring to the boil. Stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. • Cook for 12 minutes, then remove from heat. Keep covered until rice is tender and the water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes (the rice will finish cooking it its own steam, so don't peek!).

• While rice is cooking, thinly slice carrot into half-moons. Roughly chop capsicum. • Trim and halve green beans. Zest lime to get a generous pinch, then cut into wedges. • In a small bowl, combine char siu paste, sesame oil blend (see ingredients) and the soy sauce.

Little Chefs: Take charge by mixing the ingredients for the sauce!

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. When oil is hot, cook beef strips, in batches, until browned and cooked through, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a plate. • Wipe out frying pan, then return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook carrot, capsicum and green beans, tossing, until tender, 4-5 minutes. Add Asian greens, lime zest and remaining garlic. Cook until fragrant and greens are just wilted, 1-2 minutes. • Stir in char siu sauce and simmer until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. Return beef to pan, tossing to coat.

TIP: Cooking the beef in batches over a high heat helps it stay tender.
