1 Cook the rice to pack instructions. Add the sugarsnaps for the last 2 mins of cooking; drain.

2 Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large frying pan over a high heat. Fry the mince, cauliflower and onion for 12-15 mins, stirring, until cooked through and just turning golden. Add the garlic & ginger paste and cook for 1 min.

3 Add the honey, chilli sauce, lime juice, fish sauce and soy. Simmer for 2 mins, then remove from the heat. Set half the mixture aside for the Vietnamesestyle baguettes (right). Stir the spinach and most of the herbs into the remaining mince mixture.

4 Divide the rice and sugarsnaps between plates, then top with the turkey mix and scatter over the remaining herbs to serve.
