Ingredients

  • 80g basmati rice, rinsed
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • 3 tsp olive oil
  • 125g lean beef steak mince
  • 2 spring onions, chopped
  • 3 tsp chipotle chilli and smoked paprika paste
  • 1 tsp light soy sauce
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 head pak choi, thickly sliced
  • 1 carrot, peeled into ribbons

Method

  1. Put the rice in a medium saucepan and cover with 150ml water. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer for 8 mins. Remove from the heat, stir in 1 tsp sesame oil; set aside, covered.
  2. Heat 1 tsp of the olive oil in a large frying pan on a high heat and fry the mince for 3-4 mins until browned all over, stirring occasionally. Add the onions and 2 tsp of the chipotle chilli and smoked paprika paste and cook for 1 min more or until the mince is cooked through. Stir in the soy sauce and half the lime juice, then tip into a bowl; cover with foil.
  3. Steam the pak choi for 4-5 mins.
  4. Wipe out the frying pan and heat the remaining olive oil. Break the eggs and cook over a medium-high heat for 3 mins until the whites have formed crispy edges and are set but the yolks are still runny.
  5. Divide the rice between 2 bowls, pile on the carrot, pak choi and mince, then top with the eggs. Mix the remaining lime juice, sesame oil and chipotle paste and drizzle over the top to serve.

and as always have a chilled day from the Viking
