l
chopped onion
2 minced garlic cloves
1 tablespoon of virgin Olive oil
2 tablespoons of chili powder
2 tablespoons of ground cumin
1 can of whole kernel corn
1 diced red bell pepper |
2 carrots cut into l/2 inch chunks
1 zucchini squash cut in l/2 inch chunks
1 can (32 oz.) of whole tomatoes
1 can drained kidney beans (or lima beans).
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1-l/2 teaspoon sea salt
l/8 teaspoon Cayenne pepper |
In a large pan
over medium heat cook onion, garlic cloves and Olive oil until
onion begins to brown. Then add chilli powder and cumin. Stir
until fragrant. Add kernel corn, red ball pepper, the carrots,
zucchini, tomatoes, tomato paste and kidney beans. Season with
salt and Cayenne pepper. Bring to a boil over high heat. Cover
and reduce heat to low and simmer 20 minutes or until carrots
are tender. Makes 2 servings.
Note: Use for making chili by adding 1 pound of browned
ground chuck. Or make a casserole by sprinkling cheese over the
top and browning slightly. You can also vary the vegetables to
your taste. |
Fried Rice

1 cup cooked rice per person
1 onion chopped
10 second dash of Soy sauce
splash of cooking oil |
handful frozen peas
1 egg
some plastic meat eg. Ham, Bacon, Salami
(that squishy stuff in the plastic wrapper) |
First cook the
rice. Heat a wok or saucepan. Slosh in the oil. Throw in
everything except rice but remember to take the shell off the
egg. Stir around until the egg looks like its scrambled. Add the
rice and stir for about five minutes. Add Soy sauce and keep
stirring for a minute. As a meal, pile the fried rice in a bowl
and serve. Makes 2 servings.
Note: I usually add chilli sauce (Pun Chun) but then I
add chilli sauce to everything. Its a bit boring as a meal, but
nice as a side dish for something else. |
