There’s minimum prep involved, the only chopping is for the coriander, then simply cook off the beef mince with the fragrant spices and ginger & garlic paste. Perfect rice is only 2 minutes away - just ping your Veetee basmati rice when you’re ready to eat. Top the curried beef with some toasted cashews and fresh coriander then you’re ready to enjoy it.

Method

Cook the curried coconut beef

  • Pick the fresh coriander leaves (set aside to garnish the dish) and finely chop the stalks.
  • Heat a dash of oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat.
  • Add the coriander stalks with the ginger & garlic paste and cook for 2 minutes.
  • Stir in the beef mince and leave it to cook for 5 - 7 minutes, without breaking it up too much. As it starts to colour break it up with the back of a spoon and stir in the curry powder and turmeric, mixing well.
  • Once the beef is browned, add the coconut milk and simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Check the seasoning and adjust to taste with lime juice.

Cook the rice & Plate Up

  • Cook the Veetee heat & eat basmati rice pots according to the packet instructions, usually 2 minutes in the microwave.
  • Plate up the curried coconut beef with the basmati rice, sprinkle over the toasted cashews and coriander leaves.
