Instructions

Cook the Rice
1

a) Boil a full kettle.

b) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 3cm chunks.

c) Pour the boiled water from your kettle into a large saucepan with 1/4 tsp salt on high heat. Add the rice and cook for 10-12 mins.

d) Once cooked, drain in a sieve, then pop it on top of the pan and allow to steam until ready to serve.

Fry the Beef and Pepper
2

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

b) Once hot, add the beef mince and pepper chunks and fry until browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks, then drain and discard any excess fat. 

c) Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
