Instructions

Get the Rice On
1

a) Boil a full kettle.

b) Pour the boiled water into a large saucepan with 1/4 tsp salt on high heat. 

c) Add the rice and cook for 10-12 mins. 

d) Drain in a sieve and pop back in the pan. Cover with a lid and leave to the side until ready to serve.

Prep the Veg
2

a) Meanwhile, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

b) Drain the sweetcorn in a sieve.

c) Zest and cut the lime into wedges.

Fry the Beef
3

a) Heat a large frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil). 

b) Once hot, add the beef mince and fry until browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks, then drain and discard any excess fat. 

c) Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Add the Flavour
4

a) Once the mince has browned, add the sweetcorn, garlic and Caribbean style jerk seasoning to the pan. Cook until fragrant, 1 min.

b) Stir in the sun-dried tomato paste, chicken stock paste, honey and water for the beef (see pantry for both amounts).

c) Bring to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 1-2 mins. Add the spinach to the pan a handful at a time until wilted, 1-2 mins.

Fry the Rice
5

a) Stir through the butter (see pantry for amount). Once melted, add the cooked rice. Mix together and stir-fry until piping hot, 1-2 mins.

b) Add the lime zest, BBQ sauce and a squeeze of lime from a lime wedge into the pan. 

c) Taste and season with salt, pepper or more lime if needed. Add a splash of water if it's a little dry.

Finish and Serve
6

a) When ready, share the BBQ Caribbean style fried rice between your bowls.

b) Serve with any remaining lime wedges for squeezing over. 

Enjoy!
