Bowls are way past “having a moment”—they’ve become a pillar of our lunches and dinners. Why? It’s simple: Everything’s better in a bowl! (Nice knowing you, plates.) But seriously, the customizable combo of carbs, protein, veggies, and a drizzle of delicious sauce cannot be denied. True to form, this rendition is fully-loaded. Buttery, lime-laced jasmine rice is topped with saucy ground pork and tender carrots. It’s all drizzled with a delectable Sriracha mayo, then topped with crispy fried onions and fresh cilantro. One bite will have you totally bowled over.

Cooking Steps

Cook Rice
1
  • In a small pot, combine rice, 1¼ cups water (2¼ cups for 4 servings), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes.

  • Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.

Prep & Mix Mayo
2
  • While rice cooks, wash and dry produce.

  • Zest and quarter lime. Roughly chop cilantro.

  • In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise with Sriracha to taste.

Cook Pork
3
  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add pork* and a big pinch of salt. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned, 3-4 minutes.

  • Stir in carrots, sesame dressing, 2½ TBSP sweet soy glaze (5 TBSP for 4 servings), and ½ tsp sugar (1 tsp for 4). (Be sure to measure the sweet soy glaze; we sent more.) Cook until carrots are softened, pork is cooked through, and sauce has thickened, 2-4 minutes more. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Turn off heat.

Finish & Serve
4
  • Fluff rice with a fork; stir in lime zest and 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings). Season with salt and pepper.

  • Divide rice between bowls; top with pork mixture and any remaining sauce from pan. Drizzle with Sriracha mayo. Sprinkle with crispy fried onions and cilantro. Serve with lime wedges on the side.
