Peppered pulses

Some weeks ago i made a recipe which was a simple kind of recipe ingredient-wise and i thought how really tasty it was. If you thInk of all of the great flavourings and wonderful tastes that many are able to enjoy i guess it's a somewhat sobering thought that the main taste in the recipe was ground white pepper. White pepper and the benefits to health can never be under-estimated. This recipe was put together with taste and substance in mind and i hope you enjoy it as much as i did. Ingredients: One bag of carrots (approximately 10 / large / /not the giant ones (or equivalent). Diced onions (as in photograph). Tray used is standard plastic food container. Green chillies 5 and fresh garlic as in photo, as in photo 4-6 cloves, I tried to use my blender to mulch the chillies and garlic but it didn't even mark them so blitz them if you are able to or trim and cut them as best as possible.

Then, the same plastic container was used (to help you try to judge quantities) to further add: Some soya mince and the same amount of sliced mushrooms Also add one vegetable stock cube 2 or 3 tablespoons of tomato puree One to one and a half heap teaspoons of ground white pepper I tried to blend the ground white pepper in with the chillies and half of the garlic as you can see, so do it that way if you have a blitzer. But only blitz half of the garlic quantity you choose, the other 50% chop and add to the carrots. Then gently stir in one and a half heaped tablespoons of pearl barley And one coffee cup of brown rice as in photo Bring to boil and simmer and after 5 minutes or so of simmering add one drained tin of kidney beans
