  1. COCONUT RICE

    Place the rice in a pot with 100ml [200ml]|#7DA0D7 of salted water and ½ the coconut cream. 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 steam, 8-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork, mix in the remaining coconut cream, and cover.

  2. CHARRED PINEAPPLE

    Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter. When hot, fry the pineapple until charred, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan.

  3. LAMB

    Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the lamb dry with paper towel and coat with the Jerk seasoning. When hot, sear the lamb until browned, 2-3 minutes per side. In the final 1-2 minutes, baste with a knob of butter and the thyme sprigs. Remove from the pan with all the pan juices and rest for 5 minutes.

  4. SALSA

    In a bowl, combine the pineapple, Cucumber, chilli (to taste), pickled onions, lime juice, and seasoning.

  5. DINNER IS READY

    Make a bed of the coconut rice in a bowl, top with lamb, and drizzle over some pan juices (to taste). Scatter over the pineapple salsa and garnish with a sprinkle of the chilli flakes. Cheers, Chef!
