Mexican Beef Rice with Cherry Tomato Salsa
Prep: 20 Minutes - Cook: 12 Minutes - Serves 4

For a family-friendly version, omit jalapenos from the salsa. For a change, try serving cooked beef mixture with soft tortillas or taco shells.

2 tblsps olive oil
750g beef mince
1 onion, halved, thinly sliced
30g sachet taco spice mix

1⁄2 cup fresh coriander leaves
1⁄3 cup drained, pickled, sliced jalapenos
1 tblsp lime juice
Salt and pepper, to taste

Method

  1. Heat rice according to packet directions.

    2 Heat half the oil in a large, non-stick frying pan over a medium to high heat. Add beef in two batches. Cook, stirring to break up mince,
    for about 5 minutes, or until browned. Remove.

    3 Heat remaining oil in same pan. Add onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until soft. Add spice mix. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Return beef to pan with rice. Cook, stirring, until hot. Remove from heat. Stir in coriander.
