For the rice

Bring some salty water to the boil. Add the rice and cook for 8-10 minutes or until soft. Drain and set aside.

For the chicken

In a large bowl, combine the brown sugar, ginger, chilli, lemon juice and fish sauce and stir well. Add the chicken thigh fillets and coat well in the marinade.

Heat a large non-stick fry pan over medium to high heat and cook the chicken thigh fillets for approximately 6 minutes on each side or until the chicken is cooked through. Spoon the sauce over the chicken during cooking.

For the bok choy

Bring a saucepan of water to the boil and gently boil your bok choy until just tender and bright green. This should only take about 3 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Gnocchi shepherds pie

A quick and easy Italian dish which will become the family favourite instantly.

Ingredients for two people

2 tbs	olive oil
1	red onion, finely diced
2	garlic, crushed
1	carrot, very finely chopped
300 g	beef mince
1 tbs	worcestershire  sauce (or soy sauce)
50 ml	red wine
1 tin	diced tomatoes
250 g	gnocchi
3 tbs	parsley, roughly chopped

Hellofresh recipe

For the beef mince

Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the red onion, garlic, and carrot, saute for 5 minutes or until the vegetables have sweated down. Add the beef mince and cook for 3-5 minutes until all of the beef has browned. Add the worcestershire sauce and the red wine and cook for a further 2 minutes to burn off the alcohol. Throw in the diced tomatoes and bring to a simmer. Whilst your mince is simmering you can boil your gnocchi.

For the gnocchi

Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add the gnocchi and boil for 5 minutes, or until the gnocchi rises to the surface. Strain and transfer to a small bowl and allow to cool, you may need to add a dash of oil to stop the gnocchi balls from sticking to each other.

To assemble

Place the beef mince mixture into an ovenproof dish – one that’s big enough to leave enough space for the gnocchi. Start to lay out your gnocchi balls over the top of the beef mince mixture so that you have completely covered the beef, season the gnocchi with salt and pepper and dress with a little olive oil. Place the dish into the oven on the top shelf for 10 minutes or until the gnocchi has turned golden brown.

To serve

Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a couple of minutes – if you serve straight away the mince will fall apart. Using a spatula divide the shepherds pie between plates and garnish with some fresh parsley. Enjoy this hearty winter classic!
