Ingredients

What you need

500g pork mince
300g basmati rice
220g green beans
2 carrots
1 bunch spring onions
3 cloves garlic
25g ginger
1 lime
4 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp honey
2 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1/2 tsp black pepper

You'll also need

Method

Step by step

Up to 8 clear steps

Step 1
Prep the rice bowls
Rinse the basmati rice. Trim and halve the green beans, coarsely grate the carrots, finely slice the spring onions and keep the green tops separate, then grate the garlic and ginger.
10 min
Step 2
Cook the rice
Put the rinsed rice in a saucepan with 450ml water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook over a low heat for 10 to 12 minutes until absorbed. Turn off the heat and leave covered for 5 minutes.
17 min
Step 3
Mix the sticky sauce
Whisk the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, lime juice, black pepper, and 3 tablespoons water in a small bowl. Keep it beside the hob so it is ready when the pork is browned.
4 min
Step 4
Brown the pork
Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the pork mince and cook for 6 to 7 minutes, breaking it up, until browned with no pink patches and a few crisp edges.
7 min
Step 5
Stir-fry the vegetables
Add the garlic, ginger, spring onion whites, green beans, and carrots to the pork. Stir-fry for 4 to 5 minutes until the beans are bright green and just tender, then pour in the sticky sauce and bubble for 2 minutes until glossy.
7 min
Step 6
Serve the bowls
Fluff the rice and divide it between bowls. Spoon over the sticky pork and green beans, then scatter with the spring onion greens and serve with extra lime wedges if you have them.
