Ingredients

  • 270g lentils
  • 255g brown rice
  • 80g bean sprouts
  • 80g edamame beans
  • 15g honey
  • 15g soy sauce
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 5g sesame oil
  • 20g cashews
  • 15g spring onions

Method

  1. 1

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

  2. 2

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

  3. 3

    Simmer the cooked green lentils with a splash of stock for 5 minutes until they absorb the flavours.

  4. 4

    Mix the honey, soy sauce and garlic. Pour into the hot pan and reduce for 1-2 minutes until it coats the back of a spoon.

  5. 5

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

  6. 6

    Build the bowl: brown rice first, then the veg and green lentil, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the spring onions.

  7. 7

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