Cooking Steps
• Finely chop garlic. • In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. Cook 1/2 the garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add water (for the rice) and a generous pinch of salt, then bring to the boil. • Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. Cook for 12 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and all the water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!
• Meanwhile, thinly slice carrot into half-moons. Roughly chop Asian greens. Thinly slice button mushrooms.
• In a small bowl, combine hoisin sauce, the soy sauce, vinegar, water (for the sauce) and 1/2 the sesame oil. • In a second small bowl, combine garlic aioli, a dash of water and the remaining sesame oil. Set aside.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Cook carrot and mushrooms until tender, 5-6 minutes. • Reduce heat to medium-high, then add Asian greens and cook until wilted, 1-2 minutes. Transfer veggies to a bowl.
• Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook beef mince and remaining garlic, breaking mince up with a spoon, until browned, 4-5 minutes. • Add hoisin sauce mixture and cook until thickened, 1-2 minutes. • Return the veggies to the pan and stir to combine.
• Thinly slice fresh chilli (if using). • Divide garlic rice between bowls. Top with hoisin pork and veggies. • Garnish with chilli and drizzle over sesame aioli to serve. Enjoy!
