1

1 packet

1 bag
baby spinach leaves
½ tin
sweetcorn
1 packet
Chilli & Lime Jackfruit
(May be present: Peanuts. )
1 packet
Plant-Based Sour Cream
1 bag
slaw mix

Plant-Based Mayo
(Contains: Soy; )
3 clove
garlic
olive oil
¼ cup

20 g

1.5 cup

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.
While the onion is pickling, finely chop the garlic. In a medium saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Cook 1/2 the garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the basmati rice, the water and a pinch of 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, 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 a medium bowl.
TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the corn 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 chilli & lime marinated jackfruit, plant-based butter, a splash of water and the remaining garlic and cook, stirring to combine, until warmed through and fragrant, 2-3 minutes. Remove from the heat, then stir through 1/2 the plant-based sour cream. Season to taste.
Add the slaw mix, baby spinach, plant-based mayo, a splash of the pickling liquid and a drizzle of olive oil to the charred corn. Toss to combine and season to taste.
Drain the pickled onion. Divide the garlic rice between bowls. Top with the chilli-lime jackfruit, slaw and pickled onion. Serve with the remaining sour cream.
