The Mauritian rougaille<\/strong> or rougail<\/em> is a soulful Creole-style aromatic tomato-based dish, much treasured for its simplicity and versatility – a classic Mauritian dish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For its versatility and simplicity, the Mauritian rougaille is a much treasured dish and regular favourite at the Lovlie Cocoon. Previously featured here<\/a> in a tofu and mushrooms version, this Creole-style tomato-based dish is proof enough, if you ask me, that makes the best use of modest ingredients to create the most delightful dance of flavours for your tastebuds!
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As simple as this dish is to make, its uniqueness and complex flavours come from the combination of the fresh French herbs like thyme and parsley and Indian notes from the coriander and curry leaves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Added to that, a bold layer of heat from the chili, for as much as you can tolerate, used alongside the base components of a tomato sauce – onions, garlic and ginger. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have used curry leaves and coriander (cilantro) in this version but variations of this recipe would swap the coriander for parsley. You may omit the curry leaves if you don\u2019t have them but they really do add another depth of flavour to this dish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Red kidney beans and mushrooms made this a satisfying main dish enjoyed over a bed of basmati rice and some coconut chutney.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
