In a medium saucepan, bring the brown rice and the water to the boil over a high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer, uncovered, until the rice is soft, 25-30 minutes. Drain and return to the saucepan.
While the rice is cooking, cut the capsicum into 1cm chunks. Roughly chop the cucumber. Finely chop the garlic. Grate the carrot (unpeeled).
In a small bowl, combine the cucumber and a drizzle of white wine vinegar. Season to taste. Stir and set aside.
SPICY! The spice blend is hot, use less if you're sensitive to heat. In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a high heat. Cook the capsicum and carrot, stirring, until softened, 5 minutes. Add the pork mince and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until browned, 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic, tomato paste and Mexican Fiesta spice blend and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
Reduce the heat to medium, then add the crushed & sieved tomatoes. Simmer until thickened, 5-6 minutes. Stir through the butter and the salt. Season to taste with pepper.
Divide the brown rice and pork chilli between bowls. Top with the dressed cucumber, the shredded Cheddar cheese and sour cream.
