Cooking Steps
1
- Pour 300ml cold salted water (per 2P) into a medium pot with a tight-fitting lid.
- Stir in the rice and bring to the boil.
- Once boiling, lower the heat to medium, cover, and cook for 10 mins.
- Remove from the heat.
- Keep covered for 10 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).
2
- Halve, peel and finely chop the onion.
- Trim the courgette then quarter lengthways. Chop widthways into 1cm chunks.
- Drain and rinse the cannellini beans in a sieve.
3
- Place a large pot over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, add the onion and cook until softened, stirring occasionally, 4-5 mins.
4
- Add the pork mince and fry until browned, 4-5 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
- Break it up with a spoon as it cooks. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add the cannellini beans to the pot along with the Central American spice.
- Cook, stirring continuously, 1 min.
5
- Add passata, stock, creme fraiche, courgette and chilli flakes (use less if you don't like spice).
- Pour in 75ml water (per 2P) along with ¼ tsp salt (per 2P) and ½ tsp sugar (per 2P).
- Cover and cook for 6-8 mins.
- Taste and season with salt, pepper and sugar.
TIP: Loosen with a splash of water if necessary!
