Instructions

Cook rice

  1. In a large pot over high heat add rice and the first measure of water. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to medium or medium-low and cover. Simmer for 12 mins or until water is absorbed. Fluff rice with a fork.

Cook pork

  1. Peel and finely dice onion. Peel and finely grate ginger. Peel and mince the garlic. Heat the oil in a frypan on medium-high. Cook onion, ginger and garlic for about 2 mins, then turn up heat to high heat and add pork, breaking it up with a spatula. Add the maple syrup and fish sauce, stir then leave for 2-3 mins. Stir then leave it again, without stirring to get more caramelisation. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Make slaw

  1. Slice the cucumber in half lengthways, then thinly slice at an angle. Slice the tomato into wedges. Toss Asian slaw mix, cucumber, apple cider vinegar and sweet chilli together in a bowl. Season to taste with salt. Mix mayonnaise and sesame oil in a bowl.

To serve

  1. Divide the jasmine rice, slaw and tomato between bowls and top with Vietnamese caramelised pork. Drizzle over sesame mayo.
