De Bandera Baked Morelos Rice Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a 2-quart casserole dish with cooking spray.
• Spread long-grain rice into prepared casserole dish.
• Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir carrot, celery, and onion in hot oil until onion is soft and translucent, about 4 minutes. Stir garlic into mixture; cook and stir 1 minute more. Increase heat to high; add chicken stock and bay leaf to the saucepan and bring to a boil. Pour the mixture over the rice in the casserole dish. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil.
• Bake in preheated oven 20 minutes. Remove aluminum foil and continue baking until the rice is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid, about 20 minutes more. Remove and discard bay leaf; season with black pepper. Fluff with a fork to serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Melt half of butter in heavy saucepan and cook the onion and garlic, stirring, until onion is translucent. Add rice and stir briefly over low heat until grains are coated with butter.
• Stir in broth, making sure there are no lumps in rice. Add parsley, thyme and bay leaf. Cover with a close-fitting lid and place in oven.
• Bake exactly 17 minutes. Remove cover and discard the parsley, thyme sprigs and bay leaf. Using a two-pronged fork, stir in remaining butter and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to BROIL.
• Rinse the rice until the water starts to run clear. Set aside to drain thoroughly.
• Place the onion, garlic and whole tomatoes on a cookie sheet and BROIL until skin begins to char. (Watch the garlic carefully, as it will finish broiling first.) Immediately place the vegetables in a clean paper bag, close up and sweat for 15-20 minutes or until the skin is loosened.
• Remove the peel from the garlic and mince. Remove the skin from the tomatoes and onions and chop into bite size pieces.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• In an oiled 2 quart ovenproof casserole dish combine all the ingredients except for the parsley and cilantro.
• Bake, covered until the rice grains are tender and liquid absorbed, approximately 45 minutes.
• Fluff rice with fork and garnish with the parsley and cilantro. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
• Serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Heat the oil in a large dutch oven and add the garlic and onions. Cook, 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and add the rice. Stir constantly, making sure the rice doesn't burn. Cook over low heat, about 3 minutes.
• Next, add the whole tomatoes, diced tomatoes, cumin, salt, pepper, cayenne and turmeric. Stir to combine and let cook, about 2 minutes. Finally, add the chicken broth and stir the mixture together. Bring the mixture to a boil, and then reduce heat to low. Cover, and simmer until the rice is not quite done, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Top with the cheese, and then bake with the lid off until the cheese is melted and the rice fully cooked, about 15 minutes. Serve with chopped cilantro.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425. Put the oil into a sauté pan set over medium heat. When the oil shimmers, add the garlic cloves, shallots and lemon zest, and cook, tossing occasionally, for about 15 minutes, until the garlic is golden brown and soft. Add the sprigs of curry leaves, and cook for approximately 2 minutes more, or until the leaves are starting to crisp.
• Pour the garlic and shallots into a large ovenproof baking dish, approximately 10 by 14 inches, and spread the rice over the vegetables in an even layer. Sprinkle 2 teaspoons of salt over the rice, and then pour 3 1/2 cups of boiling water over the rice. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil, and place in the oven for 30 minutes or so, until all the water has been absorbed and the rice is light, fluffy and starting to turn crisp around the edges.
• Remove the dish from the oven, uncover and drizzle the saffron and its soaking water over the dish. Re-cover the dish with aluminum foil, and allow it to sit on the stovetop for another 5 or 10 minutes, then serve.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C/gas 6. Heat half the oil in a deep frying or sauté pan (or shallow casserole dish) measuring around 30cm in diameter. Over a high heat, colour the pork belly slices on each side in several batches, then transfer to a bowl. Add the remaining oil to the pan and lower the heat to medium, then add the black pudding and bacon and fry all over for several mins. Remove with a slotted spoon. Fry the onion and peppers for around 10 mins until soft and pale gold, then add the tomato and cook until soft. Add the garlic, smoked paprika and chilli flakes and cook for another 2 mins, then put the pork, black pudding and bacon back in the pan. Add the beans, stock and whichever herb you're using, and bring everything to the boil.
• Sprinkle the rice around the pork belly, pushing it underneath the stock. Let the stock come to the boil again, season well, then transfer to the oven (leave it uncovered). Cook for 20 mins without stirring, then check to see how the rice is doing. The rice should be tender and the stock absorbed. If it's not ready, put back in the oven for another 5 mins, then check again. Taste for seasoning.
• Squeeze lemon juice over the top and drizzle over some extra virgin olive oil just before serving, if you like.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drain excess fat and transfer beef to a large pot over medium low heat.. Stir in the onion, green bell pepper, tomatoes, water, rice, chile sauce, salt, brown sugar, cumin, Worcestershire sauce and ground black pepper.
• Let this simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, then transport this to a 2-quart casserole dish. Press down firmly and sprinkle with the shredded Cheddar cheese.
• Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 10 to 15 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro.
