Hoisin contains Chinese Five Spice, rice vinegar and red miso which gives it its delicious sweet-umami flavour. Here, we're reducing it down whilst the pork is in the pan to coat it in an easy sticky glaze.
The quantities provided above are averages only.
Boxes and ingredients are packed in facilities that handles Peanut, Nuts, Sesame, Fish, Crustaceans, Milk, Egg, Mustard, Celery, Soya, Gluten and Sulphites. Due to the war in Ukraine, it has been necessary to substitute sunflower oil with rapeseed oil in some products without a label change. The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.

Water for the Glaze
Pour the water for the rice (see pantry for amount) into a medium saucepan with a tight-fitting lid.
Stir in the rice and 1/4 tsp salt and bring to the boil. Once boiling, turn the heat down to medium and cover with the lid.
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).
While the rice cooks, trim and thinly slice the spring onions. Zest and halve the lime. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Trim the green beans.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the green beans and young pea pods. Stir-fry until starting to char, 2-3 mins.
Stir in the garlic, turn the heat down to medium and cook for 1 min, then add a splash of water and immediately cover with a lid or some foil. Cook until the veg is tender, 4-5 mins.
Once tender, remove the veg from the heat and season. Stir in the sesame seeds, then transfer to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
Pop the (now empty) frying pan back on medium-high heat with another drizzle of oil. Season the pork with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat.
Once hot, lay the pork into the pan and cook until browned, 2-3 mins on each side.
Reduce the heat to medium and fry for an additional 2-3 mins, turning every couple of mins.
Next, stir in the hoisin sauce, honey and water for the glaze (see pantry for amount). Squeeze in a little lime juice, then turn the pork so it's well coated in the glaze. TIP: If your honey has hardened, put the sachet in a bowl of hot water for 1 min to loosen.
Cook for a further 2-3 mins, until the glaze is sticky and the pork is cooked through. IMPORTANT: The pork is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
While the pork cooks, pop the mayo and sriracha into a small bowl and mix together.
Once the pork is ready, remove from the heat and allow it to rest for a few mins.
Meanwhile, add the lime zest to the rice and fluff up with a fork.
Share the zesty rice out between your plates and top with the sticky glazed pork, spooning over any remaining sauce from the pan. Serve the garlic sesame veg alongside.
Finish by drizzling over the sriracha mayo and sprinkling on the spring onion.
Serve any remaining lime wedges alongside for squeezing over.
Enjoy!
