Instructions
a) Boil a half-full kettle.
b) Pour the boiled water into a large saucepan with 1/4 tsp salt on high heat. Add the rice and cook for 10-12 mins.
c) Drain in a sieve and pop back in the pan. Cover with a lid and leave to the side until ready to serve.

b) Heat a large frying pan on medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
c) Once hot, add the pork mince, Central American style spice mix and sliced pepper. Fry until the mince has browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince.
a) While the mince cooks, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

a) Add the garlic to the mince and cook for 1 min more.
b) Stir through the passata, chicken stock paste, sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts).
c) Simmer until the sauce has thickened slightly, 3-4 mins.
a) Stir the BBQ sauce through the mince and cook until thickened and warmed through, 1-2 mins.
b) Taste and season with salt and pepper if you feel it needs it. Add a splash of water if it's a little too thick.
c) Fluff up the rice with a fork.
a) When everything's ready then share the rice between your serving bowls.
b) Top with the BBQ pork stew.
