Ingredients

  • 200g lentils
  • 150g basmati rice
  • 80g red cabbage
  • 80g spinach
  • 25g sweet chilli sauce
  • 15g juice of ½ lime
  • 5g soy sauce
  • 10g spring onions

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the red cabbage and spinach, 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

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

  4. 4

    Combine the sweet chilli sauce, lime and soy, and toss through the protein and veg in the final minute of cooking.

  5. 5

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

  6. 6

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