1
To cook the beef: Mix the raw mince with the sauce ingredients and leave to marinade whilst you prepare the other ingredients.
2
For the cucumber: mix the salt, sugar and vinegar in a bowl until dissolved. Add the sliced cucumber and toss to coat. Set aside for 15 minutes.
3
Bring a small pan of water to the boil. Blanch the spinach for 2 minutes then drain and rinse with cold water immediately to stop the cooking. Add the spring onion, garlic and sesame seeds and stir to combine. Set aside.
4
Mix the carrot with the sesame oil and season with salt and pepper. Meanwhile, place 2 frying pans on a medium to high heat. Add the oil to one and cook the mince for 3-5 minutes until brown and crispy. Fry the eggs in the other pan to your liking (a runny yolk will help sauce the rice).
5
Cook the Ben's Original™ rice according to pack instructions and place into a bowl. Top with the individual ingredients, finishing with the fried egg and spring onion. Mix it all together and enjoy!
