Ingredients

  • 2 oz carrot ((2oz is approx 1/2 or 1 small carrot))
  • 2 oz zucchini (courgette (2oz is around 1/3-1/2 a zucchini))
  • 1 oz spinach (a large handful)
  • 1 tsp vegetable oil (approximately)
  • 3/4 cup cooked rice (approx, suggest basmati)
  • 1/4 cup coconut milk ((1/4 cup is 4tbsp) approx)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Grate the carrot and zucchini/courgette with fine side of the grater and roughly chop the spinach.

  2. 2

    Warm a little oil in a small skillet/frying pan over a medium heat.

  3. 3

    Add the carrot and zucchini and cook for a couple minutes, stirring regularly, so that the vegetables soften.

  4. 4

    Add the spinach to the pan, if using, and stir to wilt down.

  5. 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.
