Do you also usually prepare rice on the weekend? Personally, I really like sticky and soupy rice dishes, although I don't always prepare rice dishes of this type. Last weekend I bet on a rice with mushrooms and egg. Yes, I couldn't resist cooking some eggs in the microwave to top it off.
The rice with mushrooms that I propose today is very easy to prepare. Carry a fried onion and pepper important, but beyond that few more secrets it has. A "pastilla" of concentrated tomato and another of choricero pepper meat contribute to its flavor. And it is that, what a relief it is to have pills of this type and of which I speak below in the freezer.
At home a small boat that concentrated tomato or chorizo pepper meat It would spoil open in the refrigerator before we could finish it. So what we do is use an ice tray to shape small single-dose tablets that we freeze and store in jars in the freezer; a trick learned from zero waste accounts.
The recipe
- 1 red onion
- 1 green pepper
- ½ red pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 280 g. sliced mushrooms
- Salt and pepper
- 1 teaspoon tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon of chorizo pepper meat
- 1 cup of rice
- 3 cups vegetable broth or hot water
- 4 eggs
- Finely chop the onion and peppers and sauté in a casserole for 10 minutes.
- Then add the mushroomsSeason with salt and pepper and fry for four more minutes, stirring frequently.
- We add the tomato, the chorizo pepper and the rice and sauté for a couple of minutes, stirring constantly.
- Then we pour the boiling broth, Mix, cover and cook over medium/high heat for five minutes.
- After five minutes, lower the heat and we cook the rice 10-12 minutes more or until it is done.
- We remove from the fire and let rest placing a clean cloth on top.
- We take this moment to prepare some eggs in the microwave. To do this we take some cups or bowls, brush the bottom with a little oil, crack an egg in each one and cook them at maximum power, one by one, until we get the desired pint.
