Instructions

  1. Grate the carrot and zucchini/courgette with fine side of the grater and roughly chop the spinach.
  2. Warm a little oil in a small skillet/frying pan over a medium heat.
  3. Add the carrot and zucchini and cook for a couple minutes, stirring regularly, so that the vegetables soften.
  4. Add the spinach to the pan, if using, and stir to wilt down.
  5. Add the coconut milk then rice and stir so that vegetables are well mixed through. Cook a minute or two to warm through and evaporate off some of the liquid.

Notes

  • This uses approx ¼ cup basmati rice (50g) cooked in ½ cup (120ml) water giving around ¾ cup, 135g/4 ½oz cooked rice (volume may be a little more). A little more rice will also work, depending on what you have. You can also easily adjust the ingredients to the vegetables you have/prefer and quantities you have, too.
