Instructions

Rice On
1
  • Boil a half-full kettle.
  • Pour the boiled water into a saucepan with 1/4 tsp salt on high heat.
  • Boil the rice, 10-12 mins. 
  • Once cooked, drain, pop back in the pan and cover.
Fry Time
2
  • Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat.
  • Once hot, fry the mince, mushrooms and Cajun spice mix (add less if you'd prefer things milder), 5-6 mins.
  • Break the mince up as it cooks, then drain the fat.
  • Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw meat. Cook so there's no pink in the middle.

  • Stir in a knob of butter (if you have any).
  • Bring to the boil then simmer, 2-3 mins.
