Marrow Rice Recipes

Steps:

• Wash the marrow and cut it into cubes.
• Heat the oil in a large, heavy based pan and fry the onions for 5 mins, then add the marrow, green peper, rice, garlic, bay leaf, tomatoes and water. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Bring to the boil, then turn the heat down and cover. Cook very gently until the rice is cooked and all the liquid is absorbed. Check the seasoning. Sprinkle with the parsley and serve.

Steps:

• In a medium size saucepan combine rice with broth and bring the liquid to a boil over medium heat. Cover and simmer until the rice is almost tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in the peas and simmer, covered 5 minutes longer. At this point you can serve half to the kids, garnished with some cheese. If you are making this for adult tastes only stir in Worcestershire, cayenne and grated cheese. Remove the pan from the heat and continue to stir until the cheese is entirely melted. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve immediately before the dish gets gummy.
• To reheat leftovers and change the flavor a bit, layer the rice in a baking dish and top with some tomato sauce. Cover and reheat in a microwave or regular oven until very hot.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Heat the oil in a large frying pan and cook the onion, garlic and 2 tsp of the herbs for 3 mins until starting to soften. Add the turkey and brown all over, then tip in the tomatoes and cook for 5 mins more.
• Scoop out the middle of the marrow and discard (or fry, then freeze for another time - try it mashed with potato). Arrange the slices in a baking dish. Spoon the mince into the middle of each marrow slice, then spoon the rest over the top. Cover with foil and bake for 30 mins.
• Meanwhile, mix remaining herbs with the breadcrumbs and Parmesan. Remove the marrow from the oven, uncover, and sprinkle over the crumbs. Return to the oven for 10 mins more until crumbs are golden and crisp and marrow is tender.

Steps:

• To remove the marrow from the bones, place them on a paper towel or plate in a microwave for 40 seconds. Scrape the bone with a spoon or a table knife and reserve 4 tablespoons of the marrow.
• In a bowl, cream the marrow with a fork until perfectly smooth. Mix in the eggs, salt, nutmeg and chopped parsley. Mix in enough matzoh meal to make a soft dough. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and set aside for several hours in the refrigerator.
• Using your hands, roll the dough into balls the size of a quarter. Meanwhile, bring the chicken soup to a simmer. Fill a separate saucepan with water and bring it to a boil. Drop in one marrow ball; if it doesn't hold together, add more matzoh meal to the dough.
• Test again. When the test ball holds together, drop the remaining balls into the simmering soup and cook 10 to 15 minutes or until light and cooked through.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Cut the marrow in half lengthways and scoop out the middle. Put the halves, cut-side up, in a large roasting tin and season.
• Heat the oil in a saucepan, add the onion and sweat on a low heat for 10 mins until soft. Add the garlic, chorizo, spices and dried herbs. Cook for a few mins, then add the tomatoes and peppers. Turn down to a low simmer and cook for 10 mins, then stir through the parsley.
• Spoon the tomato mixture into the marrow halves, cover with foil and bake for 30 mins. Sprinkle over the breadcrumbs and Manchego, and return to the oven for 10 mins until the crumbs are golden and crisp, and the marrow is tender.
