Instructions

Get Prepped
1

Boil a full kettle.

Halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Pour the boiled water into a large saucepan with 1/4 tsp salt on high heat. Add the rice and cook for 10-12 mins.

Once cooked, drain in a sieve and pop back in the pan. Cover with a lid and leave to the side until ready to serve.

Fry your Veg

Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in large frying pan on medium-high heat.

Once the oil is hot, add the mushrooms and pepper. Season with salt and pepper and fry, stirring occasionally, until browned, 5-6 mins.

Add the garlic, rogan josh curry paste and cumin seeds to the pan. Stir-fry until fragrant, 1 min.

Stir in the water for the sauce (see pantry for amount) and vegetable stock paste.

Bring to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer until slightly thickened, 1-2 mins.

Combine your Pilaf

Once thickened, add the peas and the cooked rice to the pan and gently mix together until combined.

Cook, stirring, until piping hot, 1-2 mins, then remove from the heat.

Stir through the mango chutney and season with salt and pepper.
