Sausages in the frypan, heat on high. Then tip a tin of diced tomatoes onto the sausages. This will be the "gravy". Then I chop the sausages into bite size pieces with an egg flip, while they're still cooking and soaking up the tomatoes. When they're nearly cooked, sprinkle some basil through it liberally. Voilà! It tastes so good I didn't even need salt, or anything else. And all I dirtied was the frypan, egg flip, plate and fork.
I'd like to find a community that shared cheap, quick and easy recipes like this. But there doesn't seem to be any.
Thanks for sharing! That sounds delicious, maybe it can go together with some rice and an omelette on the side? I'll keep this in mind when we're having sausages again.
I guess you could always start a new community of your own? Let me know if you do, will be happy to add my own content (though it's mostly varieties of stir fried rice :)
Yeah you can add whatever. I avoided rice because I've been living off rice for quite a long time and I'm getting sick of it haha. I would recommend steamed/boiled veggies as a side dish.
Hmm, I can barely use Lemmy just as a poster. I don't think I'd be up to creating a community.
But I've had a question about rice I've wanted to ask for a long time, but I didn't know who to ask. Maybe you would know: is it possible to make a decent rice dish using a powdered soup mix? I'm often left with rice and soup mix and it's tempting to mix them, but I can't afford to waste food if it's inedible.
I'll never get sick of rice, my kids might start a revolt though :)
Hmmm, what you could try is to make congee(rice porridge) out of both of them? Usually you boil the rice with chicken stock and ginger until the rice becomes mushy. Then you add some meat for the final step and let it boil along. Maybe you could replace the stock with soup powder? It depends on the soup mix though and it's definitely an experiment. But in general congee is very versatile and you don't need a lot of rice for a full meal.
I'll definitely look into congee. Cheers!
