Braised Rice With Broccoli Recipes

Steps:

• Combine broccoli stalk and 1 cup water in a blender; blend until pureed. Add remaining cup of water for a total of 2 cups of green water to cook the rice in.
• Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat and cook garlic until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add rice and cook and stir for 3 minutes. Add chopped broccoli florets, green water, and salt; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until rice is tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Fluff cooked rice with a fork and squeeze lemon juice on top before serving.

Steps:

• Place 1/2 of the broccoli florets in a food processor; pulse about 20 times until broccoli looks like grains of rice. Repeat with remaining broccoli florets.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add onion; cook and stir until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic; cook for 30 seconds. Stir in broccoli rice, salt, and pepper. Reduce heat to low and cook, covered, until broccoli has softened, about 5 minutes. Pour lemon juice on top.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add onion and saute until golden, about 6 minutes. Add garlic, coriander, and red-pepper flakes and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add broccoli, lemon zest, and 2 cups water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and cover. Cook until fork-tender, 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375.
• Cook the onions and butter slowly in a flameproof casserole over medium heat until soft but not browned. Blend the rice into the butter and onions and stir over moderate heat for several minutes, not letting the rice brown. The grains will get translucent first, then turn a milky white color.
• As soon as the rice looks milky, add the boiling stock. Add the herbs and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer, then cover and place in the oven.
• As soon as the liquid maintains itself at a slow boil (4-5 minutes), reduce the heat to 350 and continue to bake until the liquid has been absorbed (about 15 minutes).
• Remove from oven, uncover and fluff with a fork before serving (for al dente rice. FOr more tender rice, let stand, covered, for 10 minutes).
