So I made this last night and it came out more like a vegetable rice side dish than a meal.
I'm not sure what my sister did to hers but hers came out more like a curry.
It does taste scrumptious so I might try again replacing the rice with potatoes, chickpeas, spinach and a can of tin tomatoes 🍅, and see how it turns out.
Looking forward to 'take 2' whenever that might be.
That looks absolutely delicious! 😋😋

Looks tasty MTM. The beauty of cooking your own is to change things, like you're doing, so that you fine tune it to your tastes. Good luck with Take 2!
Hi, have you got the nutritional breakdown, MTM?

Ohhh, that looks delish! Might have been the type of rice you used? Some varieties will absorb more water I am guessing?
I used the same rice. I think it's because I used more rice than the recipe called for and forgot to compensate with more water. My sister also added a tin of tomatoes to hers. But with all that considered, hers still came out much more like a curry than a rice dish - so I'm going to use the base flavors, take out the rice and replace it with ingredients that will make it more like a vegetable curry so it feels like more of a meal than a side.
Wow ! That's a colourful dish, I'll put this one in the Larder! x
It looks lovely and very colourful. I bet it tastes good MintTeaMascara. 😊😊
Hi MintTeaMascara
Your Jambalaya looks really scrumptious, and I am hoping to make it sometime - haven't got round to it yet, but it's great to see how well yours turned out. Glad you enjoyed it.
