Spanish Style Veggie Rice

with Peppers, Mushrooms and Tomatoes

Requiring minimal effort, but resulting in maximum flavour, our veggie Spanish-style rice takes ‘one-pot wonders’ to new heights.

Place this colourful dish in the middle of your table and enjoy in a traditional, communal style!

Due to the war in Ukraine, it has been necessary to substitute sunflower oil with rapeseed oil in some products without a label change. The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.

Instructions

Prep the Veggies
1

Pop your kettle on to boil. Halve, then remove the core from the peppers and cut into ½cm wide slices. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Finely chop the parsley (stalks and all) and halve the cherry tomatoes. Zest the lemon, then chop the lemon into wedges. Chop the mushrooms into 1cm chunks. Pick the rosemary leaves from their stalks and finely chop (discard the stalks).

Fry the Mushrooms
2

While you wait for your kettle to boil, heat a splash of oil in a frying pan on high heat and add the chestnut mushrooms. They’ll release water, so keep stirring and cooking them until this has evaporated and they are browned, 5 mins.

Cook the Veggies
3

Add another splash of oil to the frying pan if it's dry and (still on high heat) add the peppers and cherry tomatoes. Stir together and cook until they have softened, 5-6 mins. Then, add in the garlic, rosemary leaves, smoked paprika and turmeric. Cook for 1 minute.

Add the Rice
4

Add half the parsley, the lemon zest and the basmati rice to your pan. Stir and cook everything for a few mins so the rice can absorb the flavours in the pan.

Steam the Rice
5

Next, pour the boiling water (amount specified in the ingredient list) into a measuring jug and stir in the vegetable stock pot to dissolve. Add this to the pan and give everything a good stir. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and cover with a lid. Cook for 10 mins, then remove from the heat and set aside (still covered) for another 10 mins. TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam.

Garnish and Serve
6

Once cooked, fluff up the rice with a fork and stir in the remaining parsley. Taste and add a pinch of salt, a grind of black pepper and a squeeze of lemon juice if you think it needs it. Serve the Spanish-style veggie rice with some lemon wedges on the side. Ándale!
