This is a down and double dirty rice – flavour wise it has a smokey base with a sweet leading edge. The texture is amazing, soft yet well cooked pieces of burger, crunchy pieces of bacon, firm yet cooked peppers & onions, all with the rice!

The pieces of burger could be swapped out for chicken, marinaded pieces of beef, or even some form of sea food!

Ingredients

• 2 6oz Premium Beef Burgers, chopped
• 14 Rashers Smoked Streaky Bacon, chopped
• 2 Large Sweet Onions
• 2 Green Peppers
• 1 Red Pepper
• 3 tomatoes, chopped into 8ths
• 500g Cooked Basmati Rice
• 2 tsp Pimentón
• 3/4 tsp Chilli Flakes
• 1 tsp Mustard Powder
• 2 tsp Dried Rosemary
• 4 tsp Crushed / Finely chopped Garlic
• 2 tsp Chilli and Lime seasoning (Can use some Chilli Powder / Fresh Chillies / Lime Juice if required)
• Salt / Pepper / MSG to taste
• Optional: Splash Worcester Sauce
• Optional: Splash Soy Sauce

Method

Fry off the lumps of burger, place to one side, do the same for the chopped bacon until crispy.

Fry the Onions and Peppers in the bacon / burger grease until soft, adding the garlic in towards the end. If there is too much bacon / burger grease left, drain some off, but do keep some for the fantastic flavours 🙂

Throw in everything together, meat, onions / peppers / spices / rice, continue to fry for 5-10 minutes on a medium heat, adding the tomatoes in for around 3-4 minutes towards the end.

Add additional seasoning to taste – the amounts of seasoning listed are a base level to get the flavour in the ball-park.

Serve in a bowl as is, or stuff into halves of peppers, top with cheese, and oven for 20 minutes at around 180 centigrade.
