Ingredients

Serves 4

4 lamb leg steaks, trimmed and cut into strips

1 teaspoon oil

1 onion, finely chopped

2 garlic cloves, crushed or finely chopped

1 x 2.5cm piece fresh root ginger, peeled and finely chopped

1 small handful freshly chopped coriander leaves

To serve

2 x 250g packets of microwave basmati rice
