Ignore the ads and scroll down!
I won't reproduce the recipe but I will tell you what I changed as it was fairly significant and must have made a big difference in flavour.
It was still syn free though.
1. I used 500g lean beef mince as I didn't have any pork mince in the freezer.
2. I used frozen mixed peppers and also added good scoops of frozen peas and sweetcorn to up the veg content.
3, I didn't have any cajun seasoning but I did have some leftover home made jerk seasoning so used that instead - about two teaspoons of it
4. I added a can of chopped tomatoes and some tomato puree . . .
5. And another bay leaf that I added to the mince mixture as well as the one in the rice, both picked from the garden . . .
5. And I simmered it all for ages. I prefer my mince cooked long and slow. It would work well in a slow cooker.
So not all that different really, no??????
I'll make the proper version one of these days as I am sure pork mince would be lovely!
It was very, very nice and I have three substantial portions now shivering in the freezer for those days when quick and easy is needed.
