250g Chick peas (tinned)
1 Cup of loose sweet corn
3 tsp Soy sauce
3 Medium Tomatoes
2 Garlic cloves
150g Baby new potatoes
1 Fresh Rosemary floret
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
5 tsp Olive oil
2 tsp honey
  • Peel and chop onion and garlic.
  • Sweat it in hot casserole pan with Quorn pieces and olive oil for 30 seconds.

  • Add remaining ingredients and 500 ml water.

This recipe is so easy to make.  Its simplicity allows great flavours to come together.  The sauce is great to dunk bread in, if you like sweet and source sauce, you will like these flavours.  Like most casseroles, it tastes even better when re-heated.

Life can be hectic during the week, so when I made casserole over the weekend, I always cook extra portions to freeze.  Adding 1 table spoon of vinegar and Vodka to the mixture before freezing, it helps preserve it taste and shelf life.

Instead of buying processed food to eat during the week, make your life easier by just going to the freezer.  Saves you a trip to the shops and you  know exactly what you are eating.
