30 Day blog challenge: Day 23 — A recipe

dammit!  i cocked up - day 21 should have been a recipe, not a website! *headdesk*

very well, then - i shall recipe-ize now.  i'm a reluctant and hit-and-miss cook, but occasionally i add a dish to my limited repetoire.  here's one i invented not too long ago, and it's well tasty.  had it yesterday, in fact.

chilli-chorizo-noodle-thingy - serves two

ingredients:

one jar Napolina chilli & tomato pasta sauce.
enough noodles for two (or four if you do what i do and give the chickens the leftover noodles) you can use any pasta you like, but i prefer noodles - better taste and texture.  and i can't cook pasta very well, all right?
about 5-6 inches of chorizo (approx 1 inch thick)
about 200g mushrooms (i use chestnut mushrooms)
a couple of smallish onions
grated chese to taste (i use gruyere)
all ingredient quantities are approximate - experiment with quantities
a couple of pasta bowls

method:
  1. chop the onions, mushrooms and chorizo, chuck 'em in a pan with a bit of oil, and simmer on a low heat until the juices have mixed and the onion is more-or-less transparent
  2. toss in the jar of sauce (rinse out the jar with a little water and chuck that in too), and mix it all up.
  3. allow to simmer whilst you cook the noodles
  4. dump the noodles in the pasta bowls with the tomatoey/mushroomy/chorizoey/oniony stuff on top.
  5. sprinkle a bit of grated cheese on top to taste
  6. scoff with "om nom nom" noises
ded simple, and ded tasty - just the way i like it. ^_^
