Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the edamame and tenderstem, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

    Simmer the brown rice in plenty of water for 25 minutes until tender, then drain.

  3. 3

    Pat the chickpeas dry and roast at 200°C for 20 minutes until crisp, tossing halfway.

  4. 4

    Season with five-spice, then toss in hoisin and garlic over high heat for the last minute until sticky.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the edamame and tenderstem for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: brown rice first, then the veg and chickpea, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the cucumber.

  7. 7

    Bulking upgrade: add the cashews, sesame oil for extra energy-dense calories.
