Bacon / smoked mackerel basmati pilaf

.

.

I used a 500 w bowl food chopper for this recipe but you can alternatively finely dice everything.

Peel and long slice 1 shallot, 1 small carrot, 1 mushroom, 6 fresh green beans and process for 6 seconds if you are using a similar chopper to mine.

1 tbsp sunflower oil into a deep fry pan, add the above and cook for 3 minutes.

Remove the skin from 1 smoked and peppered mackerel fillet and cut into 6 pieces. Cut 1 bacon medallion into long slices, peel 4 garlic cloves. Put all of this into the processor and process for 3 seconds.

Add to the fry pan along with 1tsp Worcestershire sauce, 3 tbsp basmati rice and 4 tbsp frozen gardens peas, handful of washed spinach. Stir for 1 minute.

Add enough vegetable stock made from a stock cube and boiling water to just cover the mix, bring to the boil and lower heat to low/med and cook with a lid on for 20 minutes until all the liquid has been absorbed.
