Cooking Instructions:
  • 1. TO PREPARE THE SALAD:

    Roughly chop the baby cos leaves and place in a salad bowl. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and add to the bowl. Place a non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot, add the corn and black beans and cook for 1-2 mins. Allow to cool down for 1 min then add to the salad bowl. Just before serving, drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to combine.

  • 2. TO PREPARE THE PINEAPPLE SALSA:

    Roughly chop the pineapple chunks and place into a small mixing bowl. Pick the mint leaves from their stalk and chop with the coriander leaves and stalk then add to the pineapple. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Set aside until needed.

  • 3. TO PREPARE THE RICE:

    Microwave option (preferred): Open the bag of steamed rice breaking up any clumps by squeezing the bag gently and add to a microwave safe bowl, cover and cook on high (750W) for 2-3 mins. Pan method: Open the bag of steamed rice breaking up any clumps by squeezing the bag gently. Place a non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot, add the rice and cook for 2-3 mins until hot.

  • 4. TO COOK THE BEEF BARBACOA:

    Place the pan back over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot add the slow-cooked beef and cook for 4-5 mins, breaking up any large clumps with a wooden spoon. Add the barbacoa sauce and cook for a further 1-2 mins until hot.
