Chutney coated Mock Chicken
This was a result of a craving and laziness! I was watching an episode of “Come Dine With Me” and my mouth started watering when I saw mashed potatoes served with a meat dish. After the episode ended, I decided to whip up something similar for myself.
I had some mock chicken and my super versatile coriander-coconut chutney left in the fridge..and voila, 10 minutes later, a tasty, quick meal was created. I sautéed on small bell pepper strips and mock chicken for five minutes and added about a tbsp of my wonderful chutney. I let it all cook for few more minutes until it was throughly coated. I added no other seasoning. I made some instant mash and gravy to go with my main! And of course some hot sauce to go on the side 🙂
Brunch Sandwich
We invited a friend over for late brunch/early lunch. We were not sure what to make, but in the end we came up with this. You can serve this over a bagel, but we opted to use our homemade mixed seeds and oats bread!
The sandwich has the following layers: one piece of bread with coriander-coconut chutney spread , mock meat burger patty, potato rosti (grated, seasoned potato), sautéed spinach, sautéed mushrooms, and grated cheese. Finally topped dollop of chutney and fried egg! Sprinkle with salt and pepper. To add a bit of flavour to your veggies, you can add garlic, black pepper, salt, or other seasonings you may have while sauteing them.
The beauty of this dish is that most of the layers can be prepared ahead of time and reheated when ready to assemble. Again this is only one version, you can use your favourite chutneys, veggies, or burgers. The beauty about cooking is that you don’t have to have all the ingredients and don’t always have to follow it 100% ! 🙂 As you will soon find, I hardly follow recipes all the way through.
I would love to hear about your variations!
