Ingredients

Some kind of cabbage, finely chopped

Couple of onions, finely chopped

Rice, 75g per person

Bit of bacon, chopped

Mince (real or soya) about 50g per person

Green beans - a handful, chopped

Chicken noodle soup packet, or fine noodles and chicken stock/a chicken stock cube. Or veggie, I suppose.

Curry powder to taste

Recipe

Fry onions and the mince and the curry powder

Add the uncooked rice and the bacon and fry for a bit

Add some water, and the chicken stock/cube/soup, cover and let the rice cook a bit

Add the veg and the noodles and continue to cook - you may need to add more water

It's done once the rice is done - it should be nice and gloopy

Comments

We miss out ingredients depending on what we have in the house.

From The Great British Food Revival cookbook.

Serves 6

oil for frying
2 onions diced
salt and pepper
4 cloves garlic sliced
3 chillies
2� tsp each ground cummin & corriander
1 tsp tumeric
� tsp cayenne pepper
600g spuds cut into chunks
1 cabbage, shredded
100ml water
1 tin toms
1 tin chickpeas (actually dried ones soaked over night are nicer)
fresh corriander and ground cummin to finish

Gently fry the onion, garlic and chillies.

Add the spices and seasoning. Mix around a bit

Add everything else and cook for about � hour.

(Having not actually made this, but having eaten it and done the washing up, I think he did it in the pressure cooker actually - it is very good whatever!)

That sounds lovely, and we happen to have all the ingredients in the house. I thought you were still Off Chickpeas as a family, though?

Just the chickpeas. The rest of it was as per the recipe.
