Fried Mince & Rice with Mrs Balls Chutney Recipe

Here’s my favourite dish for all seasons, Minced Beef with rice, which is also a very popular one-dish-meal for those lazy evenings when you’re hungry but do not have the energy to make dinner.

You may add salt and pepper if you wish, I found that the soup mix had enough flavouring.

Ingredients:

 500g Minced beef (lean)

 1 Cup raw Basmati Rice

 1 Green Pepper (pitted and chopped)

 1 Tablespoon crushed Garlic

 1 Packet of mushroom and chicken soup

 250ml water

 50ml Olive Oil

 Black Pepper

Method:

Use a large frying pan with a lid to cover later.. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium to low heat. Add the raw rice and stir continuously until you can hear the rice making a popping sound. Be careful not to burn the rice or let the oil get to hot. When all of the rice has swollen or is fried until light golden brown, remove, place in bowl and set aside. Add the raw mince to the frying pan and fry the mince until light golden brown.

Remove from the heat.

Add the contents of the packet of soup to the 250ml water and stir well.

Place the frying pan back onto the medium-low heat and add the rice, chopped pepper and garlic, mix thoroughly. Pour the soup mixture into the mince and rice in frying pan. Make sure all the ingredients are covered by the soup mix, if not, add more water until it is completely covered. Place the lid on and reduce the heat to a very low temperature (Low) and let it simmer until all the soup has been soaked up by the rice.

Serve with black pepper, Mrs Balls Chutney and a salad of your choice.

EENJOY! / EET LEKKER
