Cooking Steps

Boil the rice
1
  • Boil plenty of water in a pot or saucepan and cook the rice for 12 - 15 minutes or until done.
  • Meanwhile, chop the onion and crush or mince the garlic. 
  • Dice the bell pepper and the tomato.
Chop the parsley
2
  • Drain and rinse the lentils.
  • Roughly chop the parsley (both the leaves and stems).

Did you know… lentils contain more iron than all other pulses. Like spinach, they're also rich in fibre and pottasium. Potassium helps to maintain a healthy blood pressure.

Fry the vegetables
3
  • Heat a light drizzle of olive oil in a wok or deep frying pan over low heat and fry the onion with the garlic for 2 minutes.
  • Stir in the bell pepper, fresh tomato, raisins, Mexican-style spices* and chopped tomatoes, then fry for 5 minutes over medium-high heat.
  • Add the olives and Worcestershire sauce and cook for 10 more minutes, stirring regularly.

*Take care, this ingredient is spicy! Use as preferred.

Serve
4
  • Finally, stir in the lentils and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Serve the rice and picadillo on plates.
  • Crumble over the Greek-style cheese.
  • Garnish with the parsley.
