This recipe can be made with nearly any bits and pieces that you have in the fridge at the end of the week and will result in a tasty dish that you can have on its own or use as a side with something else with something else. As you can see from the pictures, this time we enjoyed it with Barbecue Pork Fillets. It’s also a great way to use up left over rice if you have any.
I hope you enjoy and that you are willing to share your own variations.
