Cooking Steps

1

• 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 jasmine rice, the water and a pinch of salt, stir, then bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low and cover with a lid. • Cook for 12 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes.

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

2

• Thinly slice cucumber into rounds. Thinly slice carrot into sticks. Roughly chop Asian Greens. • In a medium bowl, combine the vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt. Add cucumber to pickling liquid with just enough water to cover cucumber. Set aside.

TIP: Slicing the cucumber very thinly helps it pickle faster!

3

• In a large bowl, combine pork mince, oyster sauce, fine breadcrumbs and remaining garlic. • Using damp hands, roll heaped spoonfuls of pork mixture into small meatballs (4-5 per person). Transfer to a plate.

Little cooks: Join the fun by helping combine the ingredients and shaping the mixture into meatballs!

4

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook meatballs, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 8-10 minutes. • Remove pan from heat, then add sweet chilli sauce, turning meatballs to coat.

TIP: Reduce the heat if your meatballs are browning too quickly.

5

• Wipe out the frying pan, then return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil (if needed). Cook carrot until just tender, 2-3 minutes. • Add Asian greens and the soy sauce and cook, tossing, until wilted, 1-2 minutes.

6

• Thinly slice fresh chilli (if using). Drain pickled cucumber. • Divide garlic rice between bowls. Top with soy veggies, pickled cucumber and pork meatballs. • Tear over mint and garnish with chilli to serve. Enjoy!
