Well the Pilaf was a great success. The children loved it in their own unique way. String Bean ate the lot and asked for seconds. Fuzzy Wuzzy ate mostly the chorizo. Squealy ate the rice and avoided the chorizo!
The oven roasted capsicum added to the original recipe really added to the flavour. I also decided to decrease the cumin down to 1/2 a tbs rather than a full tbs & I also omitted the chili (was worried the kids wouldn't go for it).
Fuzzy playing find the chorizo!
My favourite aspect of the meal: from start to finish, cooking time was 20 minutes. 5 to brown the onion and chorizo, 10 to gently boil the pilaf and 5 sitting time at the end. An excellent meal on the run esp. on a work night when time is so limited. I did all the prep at lunch time so it really was a quick and easy meal to throw together. Fool proof really! We had our with a green salad.
