Preparation
Cook the rice
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- In a medium pot, combine the rice, 1 ¼ cups water (double for 4 portions) and a big pinch of salt; bring to a boil.
- Reduce the heat, cover and simmer, 17 to 20 min., until the rice is tender and the water has been absorbed.
- Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, for 5 min. Fluff the rice.
Mise en place
- Meanwhile, medium-dice the zucchini.
- Chop the cauliflower.
Start the beef & vegetables
- In a large, oven-safe pot, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high.
- Add the garlic and sauté, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant.
- Add the beef; season with the spices. Cook, breaking up the meat, 2 to 3 min., until partially cooked.
- Add the cauliflower and zucchini. Cook, stirring often, 4 to 5 min., until beginning to soften and the beef* is cooked through; season with S&P.
Finish the beef & vegetables
- To the pot of beef and vegetables, add the BBQ sauce, demi-glace and 2 tbsp water (double for 4 portions).
- Top with the cheese.
- Transfer to the oven and bake, 6 to 8 min., until the cheese has melted.
- Switch the oven to broil, 1 to 2 min., if extra colour is desired.
