Garlic ginger rice
Directions
Add all ingredients to the slow cooker and stir well to combine. Cook on high for 5–6 hours or until the beef is beautiful, tender and creamy.
*if your curry requires a little thickening, simply mix 1 tablespoon of cornflour with a small splash of water to create a slurry, then stir it through the curry in the final 20 minutes of cooking.
Garlic ginger rice
Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add in garlic and ginger and cook for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
Stir through the washed jasmine rice, then add the water, stock and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover with a lid and cook for 12–15 minutes or until the rice is tender and the water has absorbed.
Turn off the heat and allow the rice to sit, covered, for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork and serving.
Recipe Note
**Cooking your rice in a combination of stock and water means you don’t waste any leftover stock from the curry, whilst also creating the most delicious flavour-packed rice… bonus!
