Ingredients

Coconut Rice

  • 1 cup basmati rice
  • ½ cup coconut cream
  • 1 cup water
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Veggies

  • 1 capsicum
  • 1 courgette
  • 1 carrot
  • 1 corn cob, peeled
  • Juice of ½ lemon

Peanut Drizzle

  • 30g smooth peanut butter
  • ½-1 teaspoon finely grated ginger
  • 1 tablespoon GF soy sauce
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon mild GF sweet chilli sauce
  • Remaining 2 tablespoons coconut cream
  • ½ teaspoon honey
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • Juice of ½ lemon

Beef Steaks

  • 550g beef rump steaks (at room temperature)

Steps

  1. Preheat BBQ grill to high (if using). Prepare corn and ginger. Combine all coconut rice ingredients in a medium pot and bring to the boil. As soon as it boils, stir and cover with a tight-fitting lid and reduce to lowest heat to cook for 15 minutes. Turn off heat and leave to steam, still covered, for a further 10 minutes. Do not lift lid during cooking.
  2. While rice is cooking, prepare the rest of the meal. Dice capsicum 1cm; grate courgette and carrot; remove corn kernels from cob. Place all in a large bowl and set aside.
  3. Heat all peanut drizzle ingredients (except lemon juice) in a small pot on low-medium heat. Simmer for about 2 minutes then remove from heat and stir through lemon juice.
  4. Heat a large fry-pan on high heat. Pat beef dry, season and rub in a drizzle of oil. Cook beef for 2-3 minutes each side for medium (depending on thickness), or until cooked to your liking. Remove from pan and cover to rest for 2-3 minutes. Slice thinly.
  5. Fluff up cooked coconut rice and toss with veggies and lemon juice. Season to taste.
  6. To serve, spoon veggie packed coconut rice onto plates. Top with sliced beef steak and dollop over peanut drizzle.
