Dishes of boiled rice. Boiled rice for garnish

There is one product that I consider universal. He allows himself to do such things with him that for me he has become the most important ingredient in various dishes, and in salads, and in fillings, and in soups, and even in dessert. I cook it for both the first and the second. What is it and what will we talk about in our kitchen today? Let's find out what to cook with rice without meat. I want to show that rice should not be treated as a side dish. In fact, he deserves much more.

So much has already been said about the benefits of rice that I will not repeat. I will only show how useful it is for the hostess. After all, it is so easy, quick and tasty to cook different dishes from it. Today we will cook the porridge of my childhood. Mommy called her "Under a fur coat." I don't know if this is a family name, invented by us, or official. But still this porridge is a frequent guest in our family. And I will prepare 2 types of gravy: thick creamy garlic sauce and tomato onion-garlic sauce with herbs.

And first, a few words about cooking the porridge itself!

Rice porrige. Cooking technology

We only need 4 ingredients:

• Vegetable oil;
• Water;
• And salt.

If you want rice the way it is cooked in China, then its ratio to water should be 1 to 3. Then you will get a boiled, tender, soft one. That is, for 1 cup of rice should be 3 cups of water. Note that then the yield of porridge will be the same as water.

If you want crumbly, then know that this is achieved not only by choosing the appropriate variety or a large amount of fat (as in pilaf), but also by reducing water. It should be 1 to 2.5. But at the same time, the rice will be a little hard, a little crunchy. This is how rice is eaten in Italy (risotto).

And here it is very important not to interfere every minute or two. In general, it is better not to lift the lid for about 10 minutes. The porridge will infuse and absorb water.

In Russia, rice is not yet as popular as in Asia and Europe, where it is one of the favorite products, which is used to prepare not only side dishes, but also other dishes.

But if you boil rice according to traditional Russian recipes, you better choose varieties with a low starch content, otherwise the rice will turn into a mess during cooking.
• So that rice does not stick together during cooking, it is better to pour water with a margin, at least two parts of water per one part of the cereal. An odorless vegetable oil will provide you with additional help: pouring just a spoonful of this product into the pan, you will feel how much the rice turned out to be tastier and more beautiful.
• Rice for risotto and similar dishes is not washed, so as not to remove starch from its surface.
• Many recipes for cooking rice include frying it, thanks to which it retains its shape better when cooked.

RICE PIE

lemonsandlavender.com

This recipe is wonderful because you can put absolutely any filling here in the dough. I suggest making a rice and chicken pie, but you can safely substitute mushrooms or your favorite vegetables for the meat.

For the test you will need:

• butter - 150 g;
• flour - 2 cups;
• sour cream 20% - 100 g;

Cooking process:

1. Cooking dough. Put the butter in a bowl and bring it to room temperature. When it becomes soft, add one and a half cups of flour.
2. Mix with a mixer or by hand. We should get such a small fat crumb. In these crumbs, first mix in the baking powder, and then the sour cream.
3. Pour the remaining flour and knead a soft plastic dough. We should get a smooth ball. If the ball does not form, add some water and knead again.
4. Cover the inside of a round baking dish with foil or baking paper so that the edges hang outward. We distribute the dough in the form - on the bottom and on the sides.
5. We put the form with the dough in the refrigerator. While the dough is resting in the fridge, prepare the filling.
6. In a frying pan, heat the vegetable oil, spread the finely chopped onion. We fry, stirring.
7. When the onion becomes soft, add the chicken fillet cut into small pieces and bell pepper to it. We are waiting for the juice to leave the chicken.
8. When the liquid evaporates, add a little vegetable oil and chopped tomatoes. By the way, pre-pour the tomatoes with boiling water and remove the skin from them.
9. When the tomatoes start juice, add rice to the pan, salt, pepper to taste and mix well.
10. We take out the form with the dough from the refrigerator, put the filling in it. Sprinkle with grated cheese and send to the oven heated to 200 degrees.
11. After 20 minutes, when the top of the pie is brightly browned, cover the form with foil. Bake for about half an hour more.

FRIED RICE WITH CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES

vanillaandbean.com

Heat a deep frying pan, add a little vegetable oil. Lay out the finely chopped chicken. Salt, pepper and leave on low heat. We are waiting for the meat to let the water in - let it stew a little in its own juice. When the liquid evaporates, pour in a little more vegetable oil and add finely chopped favorite vegetables (peppers, carrots, onions, mushrooms - at your discretion). Fry over medium heat.

When the meat and vegetables are browned, add boiled rice and your favorite seasonings (you can curry, this spice is just made for this dish!). Spices, by the way, can be replaced with soy sauce. Only in this case add less salt than usual. Fry over high heat for a couple more minutes. When serving, sprinkle with chopped herbs and, if desired, sprinkle with lemon or lime juice.
