Chorizo and meatball stew
This is a real store cupboard saviour. Pork mince can vary wildly in fat content, so make sure you check before buying. You could add more vegetables to this stew if you like – spinach, sweet potato, carrot or celery would all work. Chickpeas are a nice substitution for the beans, too.
Each serving provides 366 kcal, 27g protein, 44g carbohydrate (of which 7.5g sugars), 7.5g fat (of which 3g saturates), 7g fibre and 0.6g salt.
Ingredients
- 250g/9oz lean pork mince (8% fat or less)
- 25g/1oz dried breadcrumbs
- 1 tsp garlic granules
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 onion, grated
- spray oil, for frying
- 20g/¾oz chopped chorizo
- 1 x 400g tin chopped tomatoes
- 1 x 400g tin cannellini beans, drained
- 200g/7oz roasted red peppers from a jar (not in oil), drained weight, chopped
- 100g/3½oz basmati rice
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
Method
-
Mix together the pork mince, breadcrumbs, garlic granules, cumin, half the grated onion, plus a little salt and black pepper in a mixing bowl. Shape into 16 small meatballs and set aside.
-
Spray a large, lidded pan with a little spray oil and add the chorizo. Fry until the chorizo begins to create a little more oil in the pan, then add the rest of the onion and fry gently for a minute.
-
Add the tinned tomatoes, beans, chopped red pepper and half a tomato tin of water to the pan. Stir everything together and bring to a simmer. Put the meatballs carefully in the sauce, pushing them down with a spoon into the sauce.
-
Season with more black pepper, then partially cover the pan and simmer for 20 minutes. Uncover the stew as you cook the basmati rice according to the packet instructions. Serve the stew with the rice alongside.

How To Prepare Ultimate festive cheese toastie
What better way to use up the odds and ends from your cheeseboard than the ultimate festive cheese toastie? No need for a toastie maker – it’s made in a frying pan.
Ingredients
- 2–3 stalks of parsley, leaves picked, finely chopped
- 2 spring onions, finely sliced
- 100g/3½oz hard cheese, grated (such as strong cheddar, gruyère)
- 75g/2¾oz soft cheese, diced (such as camembert, soft blue)
- 4 slices firm bread (such as boule or sourdough)
- your favourite mustard, for spreading
- 2 tbsp fruity chutney (festive leftovers such as cranberry sauce or membrillo work well)
- 50g/1¾oz butter, softened
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
- pickled walnuts, cornichons, thinly sliced apple, to serve (optional)
Method
-
Tip the parsley and spring onions into a bowl with the cheeses, some pepper and a little salt. Mash together well with a fork.
-
Spread two of the bread slices with mustard (or butter if you’re not a mustard fan), and the other two with fruity chutney. Divide the cheese mixture between the chutney-topped slices, sandwich with the others and firmly squash down. Generously butter the outsides.
-
Heat a large frying pan over a medium–high heat. Put the sandwich in the pan and weigh it down with another heavy pan (or a couple of fish slices/spatulas topped with heavy tins). Cook for 3 minutes on each side until the outsides are crisp and golden brown, the insides oozy.
-
Cut in half and serve with your favourite cheeseboard accompaniments, such as pickled walnuts or cornichons
