Method

Cook the rice to pack instructions. Add the sugarsnaps for the last 2 mins of cooking; drain.
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large frying pan over a high heat. Fry the mince, cauliflower and onion for 12-15 mins, stirring, until cooked through and just turning golden. Add the garlic & ginger paste and cook for 1 min.
Add the honey, chilli sauce, lime juice, fish sauce and soy. Simmer for 2 mins, then remove from the heat. Set half the mixture aside for the Vietnamesestyle baguettes (right). Stir the spinach and most of the herbs into the remaining mince mixture.
Divide the rice and sugarsnaps between plates, then top with the turkey mix and scatter over the remaining herbs to serve.

USE IT UP: Toss leftover cauliflower leaves with oil, then season and roast for 10 mins at gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Or slice and fry them over a high heat for 5-6 mins.

CLEVER SWAP: Swap the soy sauce for tamari to make this gluten-free. Add chopped fresh chilli for extra heat.
