Ingredients
- Pork strips
- Basmati rice

- Currants
- Baby spinach leaves
- Tomato
- Cucumber
- Garlic sauce
- Honey (for glazing)
- Olive oil

Method
-
Boil water in a medium saucepan. Add basmati rice, chicken-style stock powder, and currants. Stir, cover with a lid, and reduce heat to low. Cook for 12 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered for another 12 minutes until rice is tender and water is absorbed.
-
While the rice is cooking, thinly slice the tomato and cucumber into rounds. In a medium bowl, combine the sliced tomato and cucumber with a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
In a medium bowl, combine the chermoula spice blend with a drizzle of olive oil. Add the pork strips and toss to coat evenly.
-
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan over high heat. Cook the pork strips in batches, tossing, until golden and cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per batch. Remove from heat, return all pork to the pan, and add honey, tossing to coat.
-
Stir the baby spinach leaves through the cooked rice until combined and the spinach is wilted.
-
Divide the currant rice and cucumber-tomato salsa between bowls. Top with the chermoula-spiced pork strips and drizzle with garlic sauce
