Cooking Steps

1
1

• Finely chop garlic. In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a dash of olive oil over a medium heat. • Cook garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add basmati rice, water (for the rice) and a generous pinch of salt, stir, then bring to boil. • Reduce heat to low and cover with a lid. Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10 minutes.

TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!

• Meanwhile, thinly slice onion. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook onion, stirring, until softened, 5-6 minutes. • Reduce heat to medium, then add the balsamic vinegar, water (for the onion) and the brown sugar and mix well. Cook until dark and sticky, 3-5 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl.

• Thinly slice radish. Roughly chop cucumber and salad leaves. In a large bowl, combine beef strips, barbecue seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. • Wipe out frying pan and return to a high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, cook beef strips in batches, tossing, until browned and cooked through, 1-2 minutes. • Add tomato paste (see ingredients) and water (for the beef) and cook until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. • Remove from heat, then stir through 1/2 the sour cream. Season to taste.

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Many enjoyed the dish's tasty combination of flavours, with the garlic rice and caramelised onions receiving particular praise.
  • Ease of prep: Quick and easy to prepare, though some noted multiple steps and components required more dishes.
  • Suggestions: Consider marinating the beef for a few hours before cooking to enhance flavour; try serving over stir-fried vegetables instead of rice.
  • Next-day meals: Some found the meal kept well when frozen for later, though radishes were best used fresh.
