Curried Coconut Beef & Basmati Rice

Ingredients

2 packs Veetee steam filtered basmati rice

Small handful fresh coriander, leaves picked & stalks chopped

500g beef mince

2 tbsp ginger & garlic paste

1 tbsp curry powder

1 tsp ground turmeric

400ml coconut milk

1 lime, zest & juice

2 tbsp cashews, toasted

Your preferred cooking oil or spray

Salt & pepper, to taste

Method

1. Heat a dash of oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Add the coriander stalks with the ginger & garlic paste and cook for 2 minutes.

1. Stir in the beef mince and leave it to cook for 5 - 7 minutes, without breaking it up too much. As it starts to colour break it up with the back of a spoon and stir in the curry powder and turmeric, mixing well. Once the beef is browned, add the coconut milk and simmer for 5 minutes. Check the seasoning and adjust to taste with lime juice.

1. Cook the Veetee heat & eat basmati rice pots according to the packet instructions, usually 2 minutes in the microwave.

1. Plate up the curried coconut beef with the basmati rice, sprinkle over the toasted cashews and coriander leaves
