Instructions
• Boil the kettle. • In a medium saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Toast Israeli couscous, stirring occasionally, until golden, 1-2 minutes. • Half-fill saucepan with boiling water then add a pinch of salt and bring to the boil. • Simmer, uncovered, until tender, 10-12 minutes. Drain and return to the pan with a drizzle of olive oil.
• While the couscous is cooking, roughly chop baby leaves. Finely chop garlic.
• In a medium bowl, combine beef mince, ginger paste, garlic and the sesame oil.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. • When oil is hot, cook beef, breaking up with a spoon, until browned, 3-4 minutes. • Add the brown sugar and cook, stirring, until sticky, 1 minute. • Reduce heat to low, then add oyster sauce, the soy sauce and a splash of water. Season with pepper and toss until well coated, 1 minute.
• Meanwhile, combine a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. • Add baby leaves and Asian slaw mix and toss to combine. Set aside.
