Ingredients

  • 130g Lamb Leg
  • 120g basmati rice
  • 80g pak choi
  • 80g edamame beans
  • 25g hoisin sauce
  • 15g spring onions
  • 3g garlic
  • pinch of Chinese five-spice
  • 40g cucumber

Method

  1. 1

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

  2. 2

    Rinse the basmati rice, then simmer in 2 parts water for 10-12 minutes, cover and steam off the heat for 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Cut the lamb into strips, season well and stir-fry or griddle over high heat for 4-5 minutes until browned but still juicy.

  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 pak choi and edamame for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

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