a) Boil a full kettle.

c) Meanwhile, halve, peel and chop the onion into small pieces. Trim the green beans and chop into thirds. Cut the tomato into small 1cm pieces. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
a) Pour the boiled water into a large saucepan with 1/4 tsp salt on high heat. Add the rice and cook for 10-12 mins.
b) When the rice has 5 mins of cooking time left, add the green beans to the same pan and cook for the remaining time.
c) Once cooked, drain in a sieve and pop back in the pan. Cover with a lid and leave to the side until ready to serve.
a) Meanwhile, once the mince is browned, drain and discard any excess fat.

c) Taste and add more salt and pepper if needed.
a) Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).
b) Fold the cooked rice and beans gently through the beef mixture, then stir in the mango chutney and half the coriander.
