Cooking Steps

Make the garlic rice
1

• Finely chop garlic. In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. • Cook half 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 water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes. TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek! Little cooks: Older kids can help add the rice to the saucepan under adult supervision. Be careful, the water is boiling!

Cook carrot and baby broccoli, until tender, 4-6 minutes. • Stir through sesame seeds, baby leaves and the remaining garlic until fragrant and wilted, 1 minute. Season to taste. • Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
