World Cup Recipes - Day 2 - Trinidad & Tobago

Trinidad & Tobago v Sweden
Dortmund, 1700 (GMT)

Tweaked from a recipe at
Trinidad and Tobago Caribbean Child-cooking
The method is slightly vague here, but I'm hoping it becomes obvious as you go along.

Mushroom Chicken

Ingredients

* 1 lb boneless chicken breast, cut up in strips (veggies can use Quorn chicken-style fillets etc)
* 1 oz margarine or butter
* 1 small onion, chopped finely
* 2 garlic cloves, chopped finely
* 1 cup mushroom slices
* white sauce - skip the instructions for making this from scratch and just buy a packet of white sauce mix from your local shop
* 1 - 2 teasps of Trini rum (any old miniature of rum will do here, I reckon)
* 1 chicken bouillon cube (that's a stock cube - probably can use a veg stock cube instead, veggies). I'm assuming you need to add this in stock form, not just crumble it into the dish at the end!?
* a little curry powder
* salt and pepper to taste

Method:

1) Melt butter in heavy sauce pan

2) Add onion, garlic, mushroom slices and chicken pieces and saute until chicken is cooked , about 15-20 mins

3) Add remaining ingredients (careful with the white sauce, you might not need a full packetworth of the stuff - just add till it looks/tastes right).

Serve with rice
