Ingredients

3 green onions

750 gram lean beef mince

2 tablespoon sesame seeds

1/3 cup sweet chilli sauce

1/4 cup lemon juice

1 red capsicum, thinly sliced

1 carrot, cut into matchsticks

150 gram snow peas, sliced thinly lengthwise

250 gram packet microwave white rice, heated

Method

1.Finely chop white part of onion. Thinly slice green ends diagonally. Combine chopped onion, mince and seeds in a bowl. Season. Divide mixture into 12 portions; shape each portion around a bamboo skewer (see Notes).

2.Preheat a char-grill to medium. Cook skewers, turning, for 3 minutes each side or until browned and cooked.

3.Meanwhile, whisk chilli sauce and juice in a bowl until combined. Place capsicum, carrot, snow peas, sliced onion and 2 tablespoons of the chilli mixture in a bowl. Season. Toss to combine. Serve with skewers, rice and remaining chilli mixture.

You can cook 1 1/2 cups long-grain white rice instead of using microwave rice. Soak wooden skewers in cold water for 30 minutes to prevent burning while cooking.
