Cooking Steps

1
1

Thinly slice the red onion. In a small bowl, combine the white wine vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt. Scrunch 1/2 the sliced onion in your hands, then add it to the pickling liquid with just enough water to cover the onion. Set aside until serving.

Finely chop the garlic. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter (for the rice) 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, then 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, combine the mayonnaise, 1/2 the sour cream, a drizzle of olive oil and a splash of the pickling liquid in a medium bowl. Season to taste. Roughly chop the baby spinach leaves. Drain the sweetcorn (see ingredients). Heat a large frying pan over a high heat. Cook the sweetcorn until lightly browned, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to the mayo dressing.

TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the kernels are "popping" out.

When the rice has 5 minutes cook time remaining, return the frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook the remaining onion until softened, 3-4 minutes. Add the Louisiana spice blend and remaining garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the BBQ marinated jackfruit, butter (for the sauce) and a splash of water. Cook, stirring to combine, until warmed through, 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat, then stir through the remaining sour cream. Season to taste.
