Creole cooking at its best, it’s easy and oh so tasty! We’ve used a meat substitute for a vegetarian version but this can simply be replaced with chicken, prawns or chorizo.

Ingredients
- 2 celery sticks - sliced
- 2 green peppers - diced
- 2 medium carrots - peeled and sliced
- 1 large onion - small dices
- 3 spring onions - sliced
- 2 tsp Spicemasters Cajun spice mix
- 350g meat substitute pieces
- 300ml vegetable stock
- 3 tbsp plain flour
- 2 tbsp chopped parsley
Directions
Prepare your ingredients.
Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large frying pan.
Fry the onion, carrot, and celery for a few minutes or until it starts to brown.
Add the flour and stir to form a paste.
Add the Cajun spices and continue to stir.
Start adding the vegetable stock, a little at a time, so that the flour thickens the stock.
Once all the stock has been poured in add the meat substitute pieces and peppers and stir.
Cover the pan and simmer gently for 10 minutes.
Add the parsley and spring onions, stir in, serve, and enjoy.

We read the label on one supermarket garlic bread: 15 ingredients, garlic at 3%, and four additives. Here's what they're for, and what ours looks like instead.
