Sweet and Sticky Beef Bowl

Place a medium frying pan on medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.

When hot, brown the beef mince, using a wooden spoon to break it up as it cooks, 5-6 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Meanwhile, boil a half-full kettle. Pour the boiled water into a medium saucepan with 0.25 tsp salt and bring back to the boil.

Add the kale and cook until tender and wilted, 2-3 mins.

Once cooked, drain in a colander. Return to the pan, season with salt and pepper and cover to keep warm. 

Once the beef is cooked, add the garlic, ketjap manis and water (see pantry) to the pan. Stir to coat and cook for 30 secs.

Stir through the chilli flakes.

Set aside your sticky beef in a medium bowl and cover to keep warm.

Return the frying pan (no need to clean) to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.

Once hot, fry the green beans until starting to char, 2-3 mins. Add the grated carrot and cook, stirring occasionally, for a further 1-2 mins.

Add the sesame oil and toss to coat, then remove from the heat. Season with salt and pepper.
