Cooking Instructions

30 minutes
  1. 1

    Peel and dice the red onion.

  2. 2

    Measure out the extra virgin olive oil into a large frying pan. You’ll need a lid so make sure you have one that fits.

  3. 3

    Heat the oil on a medium heat and add the diced onions, curry power and season with salt and pepper. Cook until onions start to soften. About 2-3 minutes.

  4. 4

    While the onions cook top and tail your green beans.

  5. 5

    Cut the beans in half.

  6. 6

    Add the lamb mince to the pan.

  7. 7

    Cook lamb mince for 2 minutes breaking up with a wooden spatula as you go.

  8. 8

    Add the tomatoe purée and a chicken stock cube. Thoroughly stir them in. Cook everything for a further 2 more minutes.

  9. 9

    Stir the long grain rice into the mixture.

  10. 10

    Add the water and bring to the boil.

  11. 11

    Add the chopped beans and saltanas. Stir into the mixture thoroughly. Pop your lid onto to the pan, turn the heat down a bit and leave to cook for 10 minutes.

  12. 12

    It’s a good idea to periodically check your rice. If it’s getting a bit dry add 100ml more water. If it doesn't turn soft within 10 minutes just keep cooking it / tasting it / adding more water until it's soft and delicious.

  13. 13

    Serve onto plates and add a generous dollop of natural yoghurt.
