An absolute classic, why? Because it's so damn good! Piece of piss too, and everyone loves it. An easy way to sneak some veg into your kids if they're that sort. A little bit of prep is needed but it's all worth it. This works great on its own or even as a side. Have it for breakfast for all I care.
Ingredients
- 200g long-grain rice
- 400g steak
- 4 bacon medallions, diced
- ½ red, yellow and green pepper, finely diced
- 1 carrot, finely diced
- ½ onion, diced
- 6 mushrooms, diced
- 2 spring onions, finely sliced
- 1 beef stock cube
- 2 tsp cajun seasoning
- 1 tsp worcestershire sauce (optional)
Instructions
- cook the rice according to the instructions, and set aside
- spray a large frying pan with some oil over a medium-high heat and slap in your steak
- cook the steak to your liking, remove from the pan onto a plate and leave to rest
- wipe out the pan and add a little more oil and place back over the heat
- add the bacon and onion and cook until the bacon is done
- stir in the cajun seasoning along with the worcestershire sauce (if using)
- dissolve the stock cube in 200ml of boiling water and keep aside
- chuck the peppers, carrots and mushrooms along with the stock and give a good stir - cook until most of the liquid has evaporated
- once most of the liquid has evaporate throw in the rice and stir until well mixed and warmed through
- dice the steak and stir into the mixture
- serve and sprinkle over the spring onions
Notes
- You don't need fancy or expensive steak for this, any will do
- If you can't be arsed to cook rice just use the microwave pouches, cook in the microwave towards the end and stir into the pan with the vegetables - make sure you check the syns though
- Stop ruining your pans with Fry Light! All it does is evaporate off and leave a sticky, gungy mess. Use one of these instead
- No-one has time for dicing a carrot so do we what we did - use a julienne peeler, and then simply slice across to get easy, small diced bits
- You can find cajun seasoning in most supermarket along with the herbs and spices, but to be honest any spice mix you have gathering dust will do. We've done this with piri-piri and fajita mixes and it comes out just as good!
- WE HAVE A BLOODY COOKBOOK COMING OUT REMEMBER! Yessss: click here for sexiness!
- Any meat will do in this if you haven't got any steak - diced chicken and pork work especially well, or even sausages! Divvn't be shy, pet.
