I love this dish! It is one of my favorite side dishes. It's modified from a recipe by Diane Morgan in her book, The Thanksgiving Table. It can be a side dish, or a stuffing for poultry. It is not sweet...
A great way to use beet greens in a risotto, without all the stirring! Thanks to 'A Veggie Venture' and 'Desperation Dinners' for the two recipes that inspired me!
Chelow. The recipe and introductory text below are excerpted from Najmieh Batmanglij's book A Taste of Persia. Batmanglij also shared some helpful cooking tips exclusively with Epicurious, which we've...
Porcini are the most flavorful mushrooms you can find. This risotto recipe explains how to make the risotto the traditional way, as well as in a pressure cooker. With a pressure cooker, you can have this...
A delicious, quick chili and rice casserole that everyone loves! Your family will really enjoy this one! For an extra bang serve with tortilla chips and salsa!
Note: The ingredients have been corrected to reflect many of the reviewers comments that pecans were listed in the ingredients but pine nuts were mentioned in the instructions..either works great. A creamy...
A simple and easy recipe to feed a hungry family. I took different variations of fried rice recipes I found and used ingredients and techniques I liked and that were easy.
Yummy, easy, addictive side dish that complements a wide variety of Asian and Fusion dishes! I use a microplane to grate my ginger, and a spoon's edge to easily [& not wastefully] peel it.
My dad's black bean recipe. He is from Costa Rica. I eat these 4 different ways: as "gallo pinto," plain rice and beans for a side dish, as black bean soup, or mash them to make a dip. Serve gallo pinto...
I got this from an old Reader's Digest cookbook. Haven't made it in years, but I just dug all my books out of the garage after moving, and remembered how great this one is!
A very fruity version of rice pilaf that makes an excellent companion to the 16th century recipe for Recipe #124579. It should be started before the chicken, so they are ready at the same time.
This recipe allows you to tailor your dish for the amount of time and availability of ingredients. This can be prepared two ways, with fresh or frozen broccoli, with cooked rice or uncooked minute rice,...
From Bittman's, "The Best Recipes in the World." If you like any of his recipes, you may as well go ahead and buy the book. It's fantastic, both as a reference and for its recipes.
One of my 'Israeli' recipes that I've adapted for whole rice (that in my opinion needs more seasoning). Good as a whole meal or as a side dish. Freezes fairly well, too.
Mexican-inspired chicken chili casserole with rice, made with items that most cooks have on hand. Serve with shredded cheese, hot sauce, and crushed tortilla chips.
If you want real Cajun, you have to try red beans and rice. Often, this simple dish is loaded with fat and sodium. Try this reworked recipe that everyone loves! No one will ever know it's the 'healthy'...
A cheesy, good Mexican-influenced rice dish. I've served this often with great success. Originally from a local Methodist church cookbook from 20 plus years ago.
