What's Cooking?
It's after Purim, and you've had plenty of eating to last
for a while. How about this simple recipe, also good for the
lean days ahead with time and effort at a premium.
Simply Vegetables and Rice
Combine vegetables and starch in one dish. This recipe uses
one of my favorite ingredients: onion soup mix! Substitute
mushroom soup mix [if you're trying to get rid of that] or
parve `chicken soup' mix or even real chicken soup as part of
the liquid.
INGREDIENTS:
1 cup uncooked long grain rice, checked
2 1/4 cups water
1 tablespoon onion soup mix
2 cups frozen corn, peas, string beans or
mixed vegetables
salt, if necessary
INSTRUCTION:
1. Combine rice, water and soup mix in a
medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat.
2. Add vegetables and return to boil. Reduce
heat to simmer, cover and cook for about 15 minutes or until
rice and vegetables are tender. Taste to see if salt is
needed. Yield: 6 servings.
