Preparation
1
Cook the Rice

  • Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Pour 300ml cold salted water (per 2P) into a medium pot with a tight-fitting lid.
  • Stir in the rice and bring to the boil.
  • Once boiling, lower heat to medium, cover with the lid and cook for 12 mins.
  • Once cooked, remove the pot from the heat.
  • Keep covered for another 12 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).

2
Make the Meatballs

  • Add mince, breadcrumbs, 2 tbsp water (per 2P), ¼ tsp salt (per 2P) and half the Thai spice mix to a large bowl.
  • Season with pepper and mix together by hand. 
  • Roll into evenly-sized balls, 3-4 per person.
  • Pop the meatballs onto a lined baking tray. Bake on the top shelf until cooked through, 12-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw mince. Meatballs are cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

3
Get Prepped

  • Halve the chilli and discard the core and seeds. Finely chop.
  • Zest then quarter the lime.
  • Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).

4
Char the Broccolini

  • Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Once hot, fry the broccolini until starting to char, 2-3 mins.
  • Season with salt and pepper
  • Stir in the red Thai paste, remaining Thai spice mix and chilli (use less if you don't like spice).
  • Cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 min.

5
Simmer the Sauce

  • Add the passata, the juice of two lime wedges (per 2P), half the coriander and 150ml water (per 2P). Stir to combine.
  • Once cooked, add the meatballs to the pan.
  • Season to taste with salt, pepper and sugar.
  • Stir the lime zest through the rice, fluffing it up as you go.

6
Finish and Serve

  • Spoon the broccolini and Thai style turkey meatballs into bowls.
  • Garnish with the remaining coriander.
  • Divide the lime rice between bowls and serve alongside.
  • Serve with remaining lime wedges for squeezing over.
