Equipment needed: Hob and saucepan.

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large saucepan. Stir fry the onions for 2 minutes until translucent but not coloured. Add the garlic, paprika and turmeric and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring.

  2. Stir the rice into the spice mixture and cook, stirring constantly for 1 minute to coat the grains of rice. Add the hot stock and mixed herbs.

  3. Stir in the Quorn Pieces and bring to the boil.

  4. Reduce the heat, cover with a tight fitting lid and simmer for about 12-15 minutes until the rice is cooked through and has absorbed most of the stock. Add the red peppers and peas and bring back to a simmer for the last minute.

  5. Just before serving stir the chopped parsley.

  6. Serve with a salad and garlic bread

Top Tips:

If you have some Quorn sausages, slice them and add in at step 3. Try adding green beans to this and tinned olives if available.

Quorn fillets can be used instead of Quorn pieces in this recipe. Just defrost them and tear into large pieces before adding.
