Add the rice to the pan of boiling water. Cover with a lid and turn the heat to medium low. Simmer for 10 mins, then remove from the heat and leave to rest for another 10 mins (still covered). The rice will finish cooking in its own steam.

Instruction

Add another splash of oil to the frying pan and return it to high heat. Cook the steak in batches until it is brown on the outside but still pink inside, 1 minute per batch. TIP: Cooking in batches will allow the meat to caramelise rather than stew. As each batch is done, transfer it to a plate.
