With just a wee bit of chopping, crushing and grating you can throw this cracker together in 15 minutes – you can even cut out the crushing if you have a jar of ready chopped garlic. Turkey mince is a brilliant choice of protein: it provides this dish with a massive 43 grams of protein per serving, and it helps keep the calories down. For a vegetarian version, substitute your favourite high protein meat-free mince. We normally would associate rice with a stir fry dish, but trust me, orzo works well. It has a little bit more substance that goes great with the veg.

Method:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of the sesame oil in a large frying pan over a medium–high heat.
• When the oil is hot, add the turkey mince and break it up with a wooden spoon or spatula. Fry for 10–12 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
• Add the ginger, garlic and spring onions to the pan and fry for another minute.
• Stir in the honey, soy sauce and sriracha then cook for a further 2 minutes.
• In a separate pan over a medium heat, add the remaining tablespoon of sesame oil and then the orzo and gently fry for 1 minute.
• Pour in the boiling water and leave the orzo to simmer for 14 minutes or until al dente.
• Drain the orzo and mix with the lime juice.
• Serve the orzo on four plates and spoon the turkey mince mixture on top, with a garnish of chopped coriander.
