Directions:
- The Cajun spice.
- Dry fry pepercorns, cumin and mustard seeds to release their flavours, grind them to a fine powder, add paprika, chili, thyme and salt and grind again.
- Process onion and ground spices together until combined. (Or buy ready made, its a lot easier).
- The Jambalaya.
- Heat enough oil to cook chicken and chorizo sausage until lightly browned, remove from pan with slotted spoon to a bowl.
- Replace oil then add peppers and onion and cook until softening, return chicken and sausage to pan.
- Stir in Cajun spice mix, about 2 heaped soup spoons of ready made will be fine for a good hot mix, adjust for wimps or heros as appropriate.
- Stir the mix thoroughly.
- Stir in rice, chopped tomatoes and stock.
- Bring to the boil, turn heat down to simmer, cover pan.
- Keep an eye on the mixture to ensure the moisture doesn't all get too dry and burn, add more stock as required.
- Towards the end of cooking add prawns, mushrooms and (by now thawed) peas.
- Add or reduce moisture as required, I prefer my Jambalaya just moist, not like a soup.
- Excellent with buttered, toasted pitta bread.
