Usually a stroganoff is a meat-heavy meal, but this one proves you can have all that heartiness in a veggie-fueled dish. Mushrooms take centre stage here, cooked in a creamy, smokey sauce and served tumbling over fragrant garlic rice. We can’t wait for this one.

• Meanwhile, finely chop celery. Roughly chop onion (see ingredients). • Thinly slice button mushrooms.
• In a large frying pan, heat a generous drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook diced bacon, celery and onion, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 4-6 minutes. • Add mushrooms and cook until browned, 8-10 minutes. Season with pepper.
• Reduce heat to medium, add Kiwi spice blend, tomato paste, remaining garlic and remaining butter and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
• Add longlife cream (see ingredients) and the water (for the sauce), and cook until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. Season to taste.
• Divide garlic rice between bowls. • Top with smoky bacon and button mushroom stroganoff. Tear over parsley. Enjoy!
