Veg chilli with rice

Step 1: Rice

Always wash rice before cooking, drain off excess water with sieve.

 

Gas Hob (100g rice with 150g water)

  • Bring to boil on medium to high heat. (Take off the lid if the water starts to overspill.)
  • Turn down to low, cover with lid and cook until water is fully absorbed. (approximately 10 minutes)
  • Turn the gas off and rest for 10 to 15 minutes.

 

Microwave (100g rice with 200g water)

  • Microwave on high for 10 to 15 minutes with no lid
  • Take out of the microwave, cover with lid and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes.

Step 2: ‘Meat’ Sauce
  • Add some oil to a pot over medium to high heat, brown the mince and season with salt, then take them out and set aside.
  • Add some oil to the same pot, cook the vegetables until they are softened, while cooking season with salt.
  • Add mince back in with vegetables, then the sauce, continue to cook over low heat until the sauce become rich and thick. (add a little water if the sauce gets too thick)
  • Finally, add in kidney beans and cook until they are heated through.
