Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 40 minutes

Dice the tomatoes and bell peppers. Finely chop the spring onions or finely slice them in an onion chopper. Place the minced meat in a large bowl, pour over a little soy sauce, and mix to combine. Then add the chicken seasoning or salt and pepper and mix to combine. Also, add sweet paprika seasoning and, if you like it spicier, hot paprika powder and, if desired, chili powder. Mix to combine. Add 1 teaspoon of spring onions to the meat and mix to combine. (If you like, you can add herbs de Provence to the meat, as well as Italian herbs.) Cook the rice according to the package instructions. Juice the orange. It’s best to use a deep pan and brown the meat in vegetable fat or oil. Before the minced meat is cooked, add the bell peppers. Stir occasionally to ensure the meat is cooked through on all sides. Then add the tomatoes. Wait a moment, and then add the orange juice, tomato paste, and ketchup. Don’t underdo it! Draw a circle in the pan 1-2 times. (Add more seasoning if desired.) Now add the remaining spring onions and some Italian herbs, stir, and simmer. Just before the rice is done, add the cream (or crème fraîche), stir, and simmer briefly. Finally, add 1-3 dollops of sweet chili sauce. I wouldn’t use any more than that, otherwise it will be very sweet, unless you’ve already added chili. Season to taste. Drain the rice and serve with the sauce. It also tastes great with pasta.
