SunLive Competition
There is nothing more pleasant than a leisurely walk around Bel Mondo on a Friday afternoon to stock up the pantry shelves for the weekend. I left armed with beautiful cheeses, crusty bread, wild rice, chorizo and Moroccan relish, plus quite a few other staples. Thanks to Grant and Claudia for the complimentary espresso and Turkish delight too. Time got away on me on Saturday, which meant a quick dinner. Fortunately I had pre-soaked the wild rice, so a quick rinse and into the pot it went with a ratio of 3:1 of water to rice. Wild rice is very high in protein. It is harder and denser than common rice, so it needs to be cooked for about 45 minutes. Into a pan went garlic, onion and the sliced chorizo and I also added a couple of diced tomatoes. Drain the rice, add the jar of Peter Gordon Moorish Moroccan Relish, add your garlic and chorizo and you have a lovely nutritious meal in no time – with enough left over to heat for breakfast with a poached egg on top.
