Ingredients

  • 2 Vivera Plant Steaks (200g)
  • 1 lime, cut in half
  • 100g peas (kidney beans)
  • 60g basmati rice
  • 50g spring onions, roughly chopped
  • 150ml water
  • 150 ml unsweetened coconut drink (dairy alternative)
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1/4 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 medium carrot, grated
  • 100g white cabbage, finely sliced
  • 100g red cabbage, finely sliced
  • 100g plant-based Greek yoghurt
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the jerk marinade:

  • 2 tsp jerk seasoning powder
  • 4 tbsp ketchup
  • 2 tbsp light soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp vinegar

Method

  • Set the oven to 180°C.
  • Combine all the ingredients for the marinade into a bowl and mix well.
  • Cut the vegan steaks into pieces. Add the pieces into the marinade and coat them thoroughly.
  • Place the vegan steak pieces into a baking tray with the lime halves and bake for 20 minutes, turning after 10 minutes.
  • While the steaks are cooking, add the water and coconut drink into a deep saucepan, bring to the boil and add the rice, thyme, and bay leaf. Turn the heat down and cover with a lid. Allow to simmer for 10‑12 minutes, or until the rice is cooked.
  • When the rice is almost ready (approx. 5 minutes left), stir the peas (kidney beans) through the rice and continue to cook until all the liquid is absorbed.
  • Season the rice and peas (kidney beans) with fresh chopped spring onions and salt and pepper to taste.
  • For the coleslaw: In a bowl combine grated carrots and the finely sliced red and white cabbage. Add lemon juice, yoghurt, season to taste and mix well.
  • To serve: Squeeze the roasted lime halves over the vegan steak and serve alongside the coleslaw and rice and peas.
