Chilli con setas
Ingredients
300g chesnut mushrooms
2 eggs
250g chilli con carne sauce (Either buy ready-made, or fry your own with tomatoes, kidney beans, chilli, paprika/ capsicum, red onions, shallots)
2 tbsp oil or butter
Condiments:
4-6 cloves of garlic, chopped finely
Salt, sugar as needed
Worcestershire sauce
Herbs de Provence (alternatively, use finely chopped oregano, chives or parsley)
Paprika or chilli powder or just lots of chillies!
So...what's a student who needs to save money & time to do? Grab whatever's in the fridge and cook whatever! Like many of my dishes, may not look the greatest but it tastes just fine :)
Heat the frying pan for about 5 mins.
Add oil or butter, spread evenly.
Sauté the garlic pieces until fragrant. Add onions if desired too.
Add in the mushrooms and stir-fry in high heat for around 1-2 mins, then add in generous glugs of Worcestershire sauce.
Add in the eggs, some salt too if needed and stir fry for another 2 mins.
Pour the chilli con carne sauce, evenly spread out. Stir-fry the mixture for 4 mins or so.
Serve the contents into a bowl and sprinkle some herbs, chilli powder and/or shallots on top.
Serve with white rice while piping hot!
