    500 g smoked sausage or Russian, sliced into rounds
    2 cups cooked white rice
    250 g mushrooms, sliced
    1 large onion, diced
    1 red pepper, diced
    2 tbsp butter
    1 cup chicken stock
    250 ml fresh cream
    200 g cream cheese
    250 g grated mozzarella
    150 g grated cheddar
    2 tsp BlixSam Mac 'n Cheese Spice
    2 tsp BlixSam Steakhouse Premium Spice
    1 tsp BlixSam Smoke Craft Spice
    Fresh parsley, chopped
    👨‍🍳 Method
    1. Build the Flavour Base
    Place the butter, onion, red pepper and mushrooms into an oven-safe dish that fits your air fryer.
    Sprinkle over:
    2 tsp BlixSam Mac 'n Cheese Spice
    2 tsp BlixSam Steakhouse Premium Spice
    Air fry at 180°C for 8–10 minutes, stirring once, until the vegetables have softened.
    2. Brown the Sausage
    Add the sliced sausage.
    Sprinkle over:
    1 tsp BlixSam Smoke Craft Spice
    Air fry at 180°C for 5–6 minutes, stirring once, until lightly browned.
    3. Prepare the Creamy Sauce
    Add:
    1 cup chicken stock
    250 ml fresh cream
    200 g cream cheese
    Stir until smooth.
    Cook for 5 minutes at 180°C, stirring once, until the sauce begins to thicken.
    4. Add the Rice
    Fold the cooked rice into the creamy sausage mixture until evenly coated.
    Mix through half of the mozzarella and half of the cheddar cheese.
    5. Finish
    Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella and cheddar evenly over the top.
    Air fry at 180°C for 10–12 minutes, until the cheese is melted, bubbling and beautifully golden.
    6. Serve
    Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley and serve with a crisp green salad or garlic bread.
    🔥 BlixSam Tip
    Lightly browning the sausage before adding the sauce brings out its smoky flavour and gives the finished bake even more depth.
