Red Rice With Cockles And Chorizo Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a large frying pan on a medium-high heat. Add the sliced chorizo halves, cut-side down, and cook until the oil starts to come out and they begin to crisp at the edges.
• Tip the onion and garlic into the pan with the chorizo slices, and cook for a few mins more. Stir in the paprika and rice, mix well so that all the grains are coated, then pour in the hot chicken stock and add the roasted peppers. Stir everything, then cover the pan with a lid and cook for 5 mins.
• Stir in the tomatoes and olives, and cook 8-10 mins more until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed into it.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Heat oil in a heavy ovenproof casserole with a lid, add sausage and cook over medium heat about 2 minutes. Add onion, cook until transparent but not brown, then stir in the garlic and chili flakes. Stir in the rice, thyme and bay leaves.
• Add wine and cook, stirring, about 2 minutes, until most of it has evaporated. Add 2 1/2 cups of the stock if using Bhutanese rice; 3 cups for Wehani rice. Bring to a boil, stir, then add cockles or clams.
• Cover casserole, and place in oven. Cook Bhutanese rice about 15 minutes, until cockles or clams have opened and most of the liquid has been absorbed. The Wehani rice will take about 40 minutes.
• When rice is done, remove casserole from oven and set aside, covered, for 10 minutes; serve directly from the casserole.

Steps:

• Puree tomatoes, onion, and garlic in blender until smooth.
• Heat oil in heavy medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add rice; stir until rice is pale golden, about 1 minute. Stir in tomato puree, then 1 cup hot water, carrot, peas, corn, cilantro sprigs, chiles, and salt. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until almost all liquid is absorbed, about 12 minutes. Uncover and cook until rice is tender and all liquid is absorbed, about 10 minutes longer. Remove from heat, cover, and let stand 5 minutes. Discard cilantro and chiles. Fluff rice with fork.

Steps:

• In a heavy medium saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 4 minutes.
• Add the rice and stir for 1 minute to coat.
• Stir in 1 1/2 cups water and the salsa and bring to a boil, stirring once or twice.
• Cover the pot and simmer on low heat for 20 minutes.
• Fluff the rice and stir in the corn. Remove from heat, cover and let stand 5 minutes. Stir in the olives and cilantro.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish.
• Bring the rice, water, and salt to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
• While the rice is cooking, cook the bacon in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Reserve about 1 tablespoon of bacon drippings in the pan. Reduce heat to medium. Drain the bacon on a plate lined with paper towels; crumble the bacon once cooled enough to handle.
• Cook and stir the onions in the reserved bacon drippings until translucent, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in the crumbled bacon, tomato sauce, tomato paste, sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce; bring the mixture to a simmer, reduce heat, and simmer for 10 minutes. Spoon the cooked rice into the prepared baking dish and stir the tomato-bacon mixture into the rice until evenly combined.
• Cover the dish and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
