Rice With Kale And Tomatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Once hot, stir in the onions and saute until softened, about 4 minutes. Toss in the red pepper, garlic, kale and some salt and pepper and continue to cook for 2 more minutes. Pour in the tomatoes and stir to combine, then add the chicken stock. Turn the heat to medium, cover with a lid and cook until the kale is silky and tender, about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat a glug of olive oil. Sweat the onion and garlic with the salt until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the white wine and reduce by half. Add the wild rice and the soaking liquid and cook until tender, about 45 minutes.
• In a mixing bowl, sprinkle the kale with a pinch of salt. Massage the kale until it is dark green, limp, and tender in mouthfeel.
• Tear the mozzarella into rough chunks. Combine with the sour cream, lemon zest and juice, a good pinch of salt, and a couple of grinds of black pepper.
• When the wild rice is cooked, drain any residual liquid and let cool.
• Toss the tomatoes, kale, and wild rice together with a couple glugs of olive oil and a pinch of salt. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Dot with the creamed mozzarella and serve.

Steps:

• In a small heavy saucepan bring 1 cup water to a boil, add the rice and salt to taste, and cook the rice, covered, over low heat for 20 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender.
• In a heavy skillet cook the garlic in the oil over moderately low heat, stirring, until it is golden, add the tomatoes and the kale, and cook the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the kale is tender.
• Fluff the rice with a fork and in a bowl combine well the rice, the kale mixture, and salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Soak rice in hot water for 10 minutes. Drain. Rinse with cold water and drain well. Place tomatoes, onion, garlic and rosemary in a blender. Puree until smooth. Set aside.
• Heat oil in a medium-large, heavy-bottom pot over medium-high heat. Add rice. Cook, stirring frequently, until rice turns a light golden color, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomato puree. Cook for 8 minutes, frequently scraping the bottom of the pan to prevent sticking.
• Stir in broth, salt, sausage and kale. Cook, uncovered, until all the broth has been absorbed and air holes appear on the surface of the rice, about 20 minutes. Turn heat to very low. Cover the pot with a towel. Continue cooking for 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Let stand, covered, for 15 minutes. Adjust seasoning if needed and serve hot. Continue as in main recipe, adding the sausage and the kale with the chicken broth and salt. Continue as in main recipe. Serve hot.

Steps:

• In a small heavy saucepan bring 1 cup water to a boil, add the rice and salt to taste, and cook the rice, covered, over low heat for 20 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender. In a heavy skillet cook the garlic in the oil over moderately low heat, stirring, until it is golden, add the tomatoes and the kale, and cook the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the kale is tender. Fluff the rice with a fork and in a bowl combine well the rice, the kale mixture, and salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut off top third of each tomato, and reserve. Leaving a 1/2-inch-thick shell, scoop out insides, and coarsely chop. Place 1/2 cup in a bowl, and discard the rest.
• Toast coriander, cumin, and fennel seeds in a small pan over medium heat, swirling pan, until spices are fragrant, about 2 minutes. Transfer spices to a spice grinder, and add red-pepper flakes. Process until finely ground, then stir in cinnamon.
• Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, 2 teaspoons salt, and the serrano chile. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in chopped tomatoes, and cook until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 3 minutes. Stir in spice mixture, and cook for 30 seconds.
• Add rice to pan, and stir to coat. Stir in 1 3/4 cups water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cover, and cook until rice is al dente, about 14 minutes. Add kale, and cook, stirring, until just wilted, about 2 minutes.
• Place currants and orange juice in a small bowl, and let stand for 15 minutes. Stir currants, juice, and pine nuts into rice. Season with salt and pepper. (Filling and tomatoes will keep, covered and refrigerated, for up to 1 day.)
• Place tomato shells in a baking dish just large enough to hold them in a single layer. Season insides of tomato shells with salt. Fill each with about 1/3 cup rice mixture, mounding filling slightly. Top each filled tomato with a reserved tomato top. Place peppers in another baking dish, just large enough to hold them in a single layer. Fill each with about 1/2 cup rice mixture, mounding filling slightly. Add 1/2 cup water to dish with peppers.
• Cover each dish with parchment, then foil. Bake until vegetables are tender and filling is heated through, 40 to 50 minutes. Serve stuffed vegetables hot, warm, or at room temperature.

Steps:

• In a bowl, whisk the eggs with 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• Heat a large wok or 12-inch well-seasoned cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high. When hot, add 1 tablespoon of oil, then pour in the beaten egg. Cook for 15 to 30 seconds, allowing the bottom to set slightly, before stirring and turning until just set. Break up the egg slightly, then remove from the wok and set aside.
• Heat the wok over high. Add 2 tablespoons of oil, along with the onions, and stir-fry for 1 minute, until slightly softened. Add the garlic and bird's-eye chiles and stir for 15 to 30 seconds, until fragrant. Next, add the tomatoes and 1 teaspoon of salt, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, tossing every now and then, until the tomatoes are softened. (Reduce heat to medium-high if it starts getting too smoky or the garlic begins to scorch.)
• Add the rice, soy sauce and half the basil, and season with 1 to 2 teaspoons of salt, to taste. Reduce heat to medium-high and stir-fry for 5 to 6 minutes, allowing the rice to soak up the tomato juices. As the liquid cooks off, the rice will char (though less so if using a nonstick pan) and develop some smoky flavors.
• Add the egg and remaining basil and toss for 1 minute. Turn off the heat and check seasonings, adding some black pepper and more salt if needed. Serve immediately.
