½ teaspoon mustard powder

Additional Information

This can sit in a warm oven for a long time, improves on being re-heated, and is brilliant served with rice. This recipe is also very adaptable, feel free to add chili, or vegetables, make in a slow cooker, etc. I would encourage you to try the basic recipe first, it's savoury and garlicky, and very hard to beat.
