FLUFFY RICE
Place the rinsed rice in a pot with 200ml of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to steam, 8-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and cover.
TOASTED SESAME
Place the sesame seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
CHARRED CORN
Return the pan to high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the corn until lightly charred, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
ASIAN SLAW
In a salad bowl, combine the Asian dressing with a sweetener and seasoning. Toss through the charred corn, the sliced cabbage, the julienne carrots, the sliced green leaves, ½ the picked coriander, and ½ the toasted sesame seeds. Set aside in the fridge.
MEATBALL PREP
In a bowl, combine the mince, the NOMU rub, and seasoning. Wet your hands slightly and shape the mince mixture into 4-5 meatballs.
GLAZED MEATBALLS
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the meatballs until browned and cooked through, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). In the final 1-2 minutes, baste the meatballs with the sweet chilli until coated. Remove from the heat.
DINNER IS READY
Plate up the fluffy rice, top with the glazed meatballs, and all the pan juices. Serve alongside the creamy asian slaw. Garnish with the remaining coriander and the sesame seeds. Look at you Chef!
