Step 1

Heat the oil in a large deep frying pan or a large saucepan over a medium-high heat and fry the onion and mince together until lightly browned, stirring regularly to break up the mince as it cooks.

Step 2

Sprinkle over the Cajun seasoning and stir through the mince and onions. Crumble over the stock cube and add 200ml/7fl oz water. Bring to a gentle simmer, cover the pan with a lid and cook 15 minutes, stirring occasionally and adding a little extra water if needed.

Step 3

While the mince is simmering, cook the rice in a large saucepan of boiling water for 10–12 minutes, or according to the pack instructions, until tender.

Step 4

Add the frozen vegetables to the mince mixture and stir through. Cook for a further 5 minutes, or until hot throughout, stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Drain the cooked rice and return to the pan. Add the mince, vegetables and spring onions and toss together well. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.
