Ingredients

  • 1 tsp Vegetable Oil
  • 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
  • 100g Closed-cup Mushrooms, sliced
  • 150g Easy-cook Long Grain White Rice
  • 300ml Vegetable or Chicken Stock
  • 75g Frozen Peas
  • 100g Baby Sweetcorn, sliced
  • 1 tsp Curry Powder
  • 1 Tomato, chopped

  

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a saucepan and fry the onion for 2-3 minutes, then add the mushrooms and cook for a further 2 minutes.
  2. Stir in the rice, then add the stock, peas, baby sweetcorn and curry powder. Stir well. Bring to the boil, turn down the heat and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, until the rice is tender, adding more water if necessary.
  3. Serve the rice in bowls and sprinkle the tomato on top.

Tips

Add a pinch of dried chilli flakes or mixed dried herbs to flavour the rice.

Add 100g of frozen mixed vegetables instead of the baby sweetcorn.
