Similar to a jambalaya this spiced pork, pepper and sausage rice dish is great for a filling family supper served with crusty bread or a crisp green salad. It’s made in just one pan so there’s hardly any washing up which is an added bonus during the busy working week! You will need to use a deep frying pan, preferably one that is non-stick or use a large deep flameproof casserole. Easy cook rice has been through a process that makes the grains stay separate and fluffy when cooked and is ideal for this recipe, but if unavailable use ordinary long grain rice and rinse thoroughly before using.
