Preparation

1

• Finely chop garlic. • In a medium saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Cook half the garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add jasmine rice, water (for the rice) and a pinch of salt, stir, then bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low and cover with a lid. • Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10 minutes. TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!

• Meanwhile, thinly slice onion (see ingredients). • In a small bowl, combine the vinegar and a generous pinch of salt and sugar. Scrunch onion in your hands, then add to pickling liquid with just enough water to cover the onion. Set aside. • Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Toast pumpkin seeds, tossing, until golden, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Set aside.

• Finely chop cucumber. Drain and rinse black beans. Drain sweetcorn. • Return frying pan to high heat. Cook corn until browned, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl. • Return frying pan to high heat. Cook beef mince (no need for oil!), breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.

• Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, cook black beans, tossing occasionally, until golden, 2-3 minutes. • SPICY! The spice blend is hot, use less if you're sensitive to heat. Add cooked beef mince, Mexican Fiesta spice blend, tomato paste and the remaining garlic, and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add the brown sugar and water (for the sauce), then simmer until thickened, 1-2 minutes. • Lightly mash chickpeas with fork or potato masher until some of them have broken up and the sauce has thickened. Season to taste.
