The recipe

Let's start cooking

  1. Heat 2 tbsp oil in a pot. Cook onion, celery, pepper, garlic and ¼ tsp salt for 6–7 minutes. Add tomato paste, Cajun spices, thyme and ½ tsp smoked paprika. Cook 2 minutes.
  2. Rinse the rice until the water runs clear.
  3. Add rice, beans, stock cube and 475 ml boiling water. Bring to a boil, cover tightly and cook on low for 12–15 minutes.
  4. Mix remaining oil, soy sauce, balsamic, sambal and smoked paprika. Coat the portobellos and fry in a pan until golden on both sides.
  5. Serve rice topped with mushrooms, yoghurt and chopped celery leaves.
