Tilda tasty sides

Tilda were giving away free sides at Liverpool Street so I was given two packs to try.

There are four flavours: Mexican Faiita, Indian Black dhal, thai green curry and Chinese black bean.

I got to try the Mexican Faijita and the Chinese black bean.

I tried the Chinese black bean which was seriously good if not better than the takeaway because it was different in a way.
The water chestnuts had this delicious sweet crunch which works here but not in authentic Chinese dishes.
It was a bit too spicy for my palatte because it was the cajun type of spice but it was so tasty which you can think of it like black bean chilli con carne.
Fermented black beans is an ingredient for stir fries so its very different to the black beans which are not fermented but overall it does taste of fermented black beans for that Chinese kick.
This side also reminded me of Brazilian feijoda and Jamaican rice and peas when eaten with rice.
Overall delicious.

The Mexican fajita basically tasted like a vegetarian chilli con carne with sweetcorn
