  1. FLUFFY RICE

    Rinse the rice and place in a pot over a medium-high heat. Submerge in 225ml of salted water and pop on a lid. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 8-10 minutes until most of the water has been absorbed. Keeping the lid on, remove from the heat and steam for a further 10 minutes. On completion, drain if necessary and fluff up with a fork.

  2. TOASTY SEEDS

    Place the sesame seeds in a large pan or wok over a medium heat. Toast for 2-4 minutes until the white ones are lightly browned, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion.

  3. GOLDEN Beef

    In a bowl, combine the spiced cornflour with some seasoning. Add the Beef schnitzel strips and toss until fully coated. Return the pan or wok to a high heat and fill with 4-5cm of oil. When hot, fry the coated beef strips for 3-4 minutes until golden and crispy. Remove from the pan and allow to drain on paper towel. Discard the oil from the pan or wok.

  4. BEAUTIFUL BEANS

    Boil the kettle. Place the edamame beans in salted boiling water for 3-4 minutes until plumped up. Drain on completion.

  5. LET'S GET SAUCY

    Return the pan or wok to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil, if necessary. Add the spring onion whites and fry for 1-2 mins, until soft. Stir in the sambal oelek (to taste), the sweet & salty sauce, the pickled pepper slices and the crispy Beef. Simmer for 1-2 minutes until the sauce has slightly thickened, stirring occasionally.

  6. STUNNING!
