Sweet chilli and oyster sauce has to be our new favourite flavour combo, and it’s even better turned into a glaze and slathered all over savoury beef meatballs. Don’t let that extra sauce go to waste - soak it up with jasmine rice and spoon it over the garlicky veggies to max out on those delicious flavours!

• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water. • Cook jasmine rice and a pinch of salt, uncovered, over high heat until tender, 12-14 minutes. Drain, rinse with warm water and return to the saucepan. • Add the butter, stir to combine and cover to keep warm. • Meanwhile, finely chop garlic. Thinly slice carrot into half-moons. Trim green beans. • In a medium bowl, combine beef mince, fine breadcrumbs, the egg, half the garlic and a generous pinch of salt. Using damp hands, roll heaped spoonfuls of beef mixture into small meatballs (4-5 per person). Transfer to a plate.
• In a large frying pan, heat a generous drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook meatballs, turning, until browned and cooked through,8-10 minutes (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Remove pan from heat, then add oyster sauce, sweet chilli sauce and a splash of water and toss to coat.
TIP: Add a splash more water if the glaze looks too thick. Little cooks: Join the fun by helping combine the ingredients and shaping the mixture into meatballs!
• While meatballs are cooking, heat a medium frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook green beans and carrot until tender, 3-4 minutes. • Add the soy sauce and remaining garlic and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Season to taste.
• Divide jasmine rice between bowls. Top with sweet chilli beef meatballs, soy garlic veggies and garlic aioli. Spoon any remaining sauce over meatballs. • Garnish with crispy shallots to serve. Enjoy!
