Finely chop the garlic. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter with a dash of olive oil over a medium heat. Cook 1/2 the garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the basmati rice, water and the salt, stir, and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to low and cover with a lid. Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from the 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!
While the rice is cooking, thinly slice the carrot (unpeeled) into half-moons. Zest the lime to get a generous pinch, then slice into wedges. Finely grate the ginger.
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the pork mince and a pinch of salt and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl.
Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook the sliced mushrooms and carrot until tender and browned, 5-6 minutes. Add the ginger, the remaining garlic and the Thai seven spice blend (see ingredients) and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
Return the pork to the frying pan and stir to coat. Add the kecap manis, lime zest, a splash of water and a generous squeeze of lime juice and stir to combine.
Roughly chop the coriander. Divide the garlic rice between plates. Top with the pork and mushroom stir-fry. Garnish with the coriander and serve with any remaining lime wedges.
