Ingredients

  • 1 lb pork mince
  • 2/3 cup  uncooked rice (long-grain, jasmine, or basmati)
  • 1 cup sweetcorn (drained, canned, or frozen)
  • 2 cloves garlic grated or minced
  • 2 tbsp chipotle paste (adjust to taste)
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 1/2 cups chicken stock (or water + stock cube)
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt & Pepper to taste
  • Sour cream, fresh cilantro, or lime wedges Optional garnish

Instructions

  • Boil the Kettle & Prep Ingredients
    Boil a half-full kettle. If using frozen sweetcorn, rinse under warm water to defrost.
  • Cook the Pork
    Heat olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the pork mince and cook for 5-6 minutes, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Flavor Boost
    Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Add the chipotle paste and honey, stirring to coat the pork in smoky sweetness.
  • Add the Rice & Sweetcorn
    Stir the rice and sweetcorn into the pan, coating them in the pork mixture. Pour in the chicken stock and bring to a gentle simmer.
  •  Cook the Rice
    Cover the pan with a lid, reduce heat to low, and let it simmer for 15-18 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
  • Finishing Touches
    Cook the RiceStir in the butter for extra richness and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
  • Serve & Enjoy
    Spoon the chipotle pork rice into bowls and garnish with sour cream, fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of lime for a bright finish.
