Ingredients
- 100g British beef mince
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
- 1 tbsp gochujang paste (Korean fermented soybean chilli paste, from most large supermarkets), sriracha or similar chilli sauce, plus extra to serve
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- Toasted sesame oil for frying
- 200g pack stir-fry vegetables
- 60g baby leaf spinach
- 1 large free-range egg
- 130g pouch steamed basmati rice
- Sesame seeds to serve
- Kimchi to serve (optional; we like Kim Kong kimchi from Planet Organic and Amazon Fresh)
Method
- Using a wooden spoon, combine the beef mince, garlic, vinegar, gochujang and soy sauce in a medium bowl. Heat a glug of sesame oil in a wok or frying pan over a medium heat. Add the mince and stir fry over a high heat for 4-5 minutes until browned and cooked through, then transfer to a plate.
- Wipe out the pan, add another splash of sesame oil, add the stir-fry vegetables and cook, stirring, over a high heat for 3-4 minutes until starting to soften. Add the spinach and a splash of water and cook for 2-3 minutes until wilted.
- Transfer the vegetables to a bowl. Heat another splash of sesame oil in the same pan, then crack in the egg and fry for 3-4 minutes until the white is set and crisp at the edges. Meanwhile, heat the rice according to the pack instructions.
- Put the rice in a shallow bowl, top with the beef mince and vegetables, followed by the fried egg. Drizzle with a little extra gochujang (or other chilli sauce), thinned with a little hot water, sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve with kimchi alongside, if using.
