Five Spice Beef And Rice Casserole Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Add bell pepper, tomato, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook and stir until pepper has slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Strain 1/2 of the liquid from the canned diced tomatoes into the mixture.
• Stir diced tomatoes, onion, garlic, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper into the ground beef mixture. Simmer until some of the liquid has reduced, about 10 minutes. Add rice and mix well. Transfer to a casserole dish and sprinkle Cheddar cheese on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until filling is heated through and cheese is melted, about 45 minutes.

Steps:

• Brown meat and onion.
• Stir in seasonings, soup, tomatoes and rice. You may need a little bit of extra water if using brown instant rice.
• Bring to a boil, and then reduce the heat.
• Simmer for 5 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until rice is cooked.
• Serve with sliced olives (optional). Salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Brown meat in oil, add onions and cook until tender.
• Stir in seasonings, soup, tomatoes, and Minute rice.
• Simmer 5 minutes.
• Stir occasionally.
• Spoon into 1 1/2 quart baking dish. (But I only use a cast iron skillet, since it is both oven and stove top friendly. Plus, my Grandmother always made it in a cast iron skillet, and I did learn from her. She was the best cook for comfort foods.).
• Criss cross with cheese and broil until cheese melts.
• Garnish with olives if desired.
• Instead of olives, we sometimes use jalepenos.
• Also, this recipe works well when you cook it in a cast iron skillet- you only dirty one dish that way!

Steps:

• In a large skillet, brown ground chuck with diced onion; drain grease. Add rice, tomatoes, soup, and spices. Add one soup can of milk if desired. Simmer about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until rice is done.
• Spoon about 1/2 of the mixture into a 9x13 microwave safe casserole dish. Cover completely with cheese slices. Spoon in rest of mixture, cover completely with cheese slices.
• Microwave about 5 minutes until cheese is melted. Serve.

Steps:

• Heat 2 tbsp of the oil in a large, shallow casserole. Fry the garlic, ginger, onions and chilli for 3 mins until soft and fragrant. Tip onto a plate. Toss the beef in the flour, add 1 tbsp more oil to the pan, then brown the meat in batches, adding the final tbsp oil if you need to. It should take about 5 mins to brown each batch properly.
• Add the five-spice and star anise (if using) to the pan, tip in the gingery mix, then fry for 1 min until the spices are fragrant. Add the sugar, then the beef and stir until combined. Keep the heat high, then splash in the wine or sherry, scraping up any meaty bits. Heat oven to 150C/fan 130C/gas 2.
• Pour in the soy and stock (it won't cover the meat completely), bring to a simmer, then tightly cover, transfer to the oven and cook for 1½-2 hrs, stirring the meat halfway through. The meat should be very soft, and any sinewy bits should have melted away. Season with more soy. This can now be chilled and frozen for up to 1 month.
• Nestle the cooked bok choi into the pan, then bring to the table with the basmati rice straight away and tuck in.
