Cajun rice with chorizo meatballs & fried eggs recipe

Ingredients

  • 6 chorizo-style cooking sausages
  • 100g frozen chopped onions (see tip, bottom left)
  • 2 peppers, sliced (any colours will do)
  • 3 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 2 tbsp Cajun spice mix (we like Bart)
  • 2 x 200g bags frozen cooked short-grain rice
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 4 eggs
  • 200g frozen peas

Method

  • Heat a large frying pan with a lid. Squeeze the sausagemeat into the pan in small, meatball-sized chunks. Fry for 2 mins until their oil leaks into the pan, then push to one side and add the onions and peppers. Cook for a few mins until the onions have defrosted and softened, then stir in the garlic and Cajun spice mix. After 1 min, add the frozen rice, season and stir, then cover with a lid and cook for 2 mins until totally defrosted.

  • Meanwhile, heat the oil in another small pan and fry the eggs to your liking. Uncover the rice, add the peas, give everything a good stir, cover and cook for 1 min until the peas are defrosted. Serve the rice topped with the fried eggs.
