Instructions

Cook the Rice
1

a) Boil a full kettle.
b) Halve, peel and thinly slice the red onion. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
c) When boiling, pour the water into a large saucepan with 1/4 tsp salt on high heat. Add the rice and cook for 10-12 mins.
d) Drain well in a sieve and pop back in the pan. Cover with a lid and leave to the side until ready to serve.

Toast the Almonds
2

a) Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan on medium heat (no oil).
b) Once the pan is hot, add the flaked almonds and dry-fry, stirring regularly, until lightly toasted, 1-2 mins. TIP: Watch them like a hawk as they can burn easily. Transfer to a bowl.

Brown the Mince
3

a) Pop the (now empty) pan back on high heat with a drizzle of oil.
b) Once hot, add the beef mince and cook until browned, 4-5 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks, then drain and discard any excess fat. Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince.
c) Meanwhile, roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).

Add the Flavour
4

a) Once the mince has browned, lower the heat to medium and add the onion. Cook until soft, 3-4 mins, then add the garlic, harissa paste and turmeric. Stir-fry for 30 secs.
b) Stir in the beef stock paste and water for the beef (see ingredients for amount), bring to the boil, then lower the heat. IMPORTANT: The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
c) Add the spinach to the pan a handful at a time until wilted and piping hot, 1-2 mins.
d) Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed.

Mix the Coriander Yoghurt
5

a) In a small bowl, combine the yoghurt and half the coriander. Season with salt and pepper, then set aside.
b) Gently fold the cooked rice and remaining coriander through the beef.
c) Taste and add more salt and pepper if needed.

Serve
6

a) When everything is ready, serve the harissa beef pilaf in bowls and top with a generous dollop of coriander yoghurt.
b) Sprinkle over the almonds to finish.
Enjoy!
