water (for the rice)
¼ tsp
salt
1 tbs
soy sauce
(Contains Gluten, Soy; )
2 tsp
brown sugar
¼ cup
water (for the sauce)
Finely chop the garlic (or use a garlic press). In a medium saucepan, melt the butter with a dash of olive oil over a medium heat. Add 1/2 the garlic and cook for until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the jasmine rice, water (for the rice) and the salt and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to low and cover with a lid. Cook for 11-12 minutes, then remove from the heat and keep covered until the rice is tender and the water has absorbed, 10-15 minutes. TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!
While the rice is cooking, slice the lime into wedges. Thinly slice the red onion. Trim the green beans and slice into thirds. Roughly chop the coriander. Finely grate the ginger.
In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, water (for the sauce) and a good squeeze of lime juice.
In a large frying pan or wok, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the onion, ginger, and remaining garlic. Stir-fry until fragrant, 2 minutes. Add the pork mince and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until browned, 3-4 minutes. Add the yellow curry paste (see ingredients list) and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. SPICY! The curry paste is hot, use less if you're sensitive to heat.
Add the green beans and the soy sauce mixture to the pork mince and cook until the beans are just tender, 5-6 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir through the coriander.
Divide the garlic rice between plates and top with the Thai pork and green bean stir-fry. Sprinkle with the roasted peanuts. Serve with the lime wedges.
