FLUFFY BROWN RICE
Rinse the rice and place in a pot over a medium-high heat. Submerge in 300ml of salted water. Pop on a lid. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 25-30 minutes until most of the water has been absorbed. Keeping the lid on, remove from the heat and set aside to steam for a further 10 minutes. On completion, drain if necessary and fluff up with a fork.
MAKE THE MEATBALLS
In a bowl, place the mince, the spring onion whites, the grated garlic, and the grated ginger. Mix until well combined and season. Roll into 4-5 meatballs.
PREP STEP
Boil a full kettle. Place the cashews in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 3-5 minutes until golden, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and roughly chop. Submerge the edamame beans in salted boiling water for 3-4 minutes until plumped up. Drain on completion.
ALL TOGETHER NOW
Return the pan to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the meatballs for 2-3 minutes, until browned on all sides but not cooked through. Add in the hoisin sauce, the vegetable stock and 65ml of boiling water. Mix until fully combined and simmer for 4-5 minutes until slightly thickened, occasionally basting the meatballs. On completion, season with the lime juice (to taste) and a pinch of salt.
EAT UP!
Plate up the fluffy rice. Top with the meatballs and smother in the silky hoisin sauce. Scatter over the edamame beans, the toasted cashew nuts and the spring onion greens. Garnish with the fresh coriander. Enjoy!
