Cooking Steps
- Wash and dry all produce.
- To a medium pot, add 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high.
- Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
- To the boiling water, stir in rice, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 13-15 min, until rice is tender and water is absorbed.
- Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
- Meanwhile, zest, then juice lime.
- Thinly slice cucumber.
- Roughly chop cilantro.
- In a large bowl, whisk together half the nuoc cham, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) lime juice, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add cucumbers and carrots to marinade. Toss to combine.
- In a large non-stick pan, heat 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil over medium-high.
- When the pan is hot, add turkey. Cook for 3-5 min, breaking up turkey into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.**
- Add brown sugar. Cook for 2 min, stirring occasionally, until starting to caramelize.
- Add ginger-garlic puree and soy sauce. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until fragrant and liquid evaporates.
- Remove from heat.
- Add remaining nuoc cham. Season with pepper, then stir to combine.
- Fluff rice with a fork, then stir in half the cilantro and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) lime zest.
- Drain marinated veggies over a small bowl.
- Divide rice between bowls. Top with turkey and marinated veggies. (TIP: Drizzle remaining marinade over top, if you like.)
- Sprinkle remaining cilantro and crispy shallots over top.
If you've opted to get turkey, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to the pan, then add turkey. Cook turkey in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook beef.** Disregard instructions to drain excess fat.
