Cooking Steps

Get Started
1

a) Chop each beetroot into into 3cm chunks. TIP: Wear gloves when handling the beetroot to avoid staining your hands.

b) Pop the chunks onto a baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. 

c) When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf, 15-20 mins.

Boil the Rice
2

a) Meanwhile, pour the water for the rice (see pantry for amount) into a medium saucepan with a tight-fitting lid.

b) Stir in the rice, ¼ tsp salt and bring to the boil. Once boiling, turn the heat down to medium and cover with the lid.

c) Leave to cook for 10 mins, then remove the pan from the heat (still covered) and leave to the side for another 10 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).

Fry Time
3

a) Heat a large frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil).

b) Once the pan is hot, add the beef mince. Fry until the mince has browned, 5-6 mins.

c) Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks. Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Add the Flavour
4

a) Once browned, add the Lahori style seasoning, tomato puree and ginger puree. Fry until fragrant, 1 min.

b) Next, add the cinnamon, beef stock paste, sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts). 

c) Bring to a boil, then simmer the curry until thickened, 3-4 mins.

d) Meanwhile, roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).

All Together Now
5

a) Once the beetroot has finished roasting, add the beetroot and peas to the curry and simmer, 1-2 mins more.

b) Stir in half the coriander. Taste and season with salt and pepper if you feel it needs it. 

Serve Up
6

a) When everything's ready, fluff up the rice and share between serving bowl.

b) Top with the beef and beetroot curry.

c) Sprinkle over the remaining coriander to finish.
