Rice Partially Cooked With Ham And Cabbage Recipes

CREAMED CABBAGE AND HAM CASSEROLE

Steps:

• 1. Cook Minute Rice according to package instructions. One cup will make 2 cups cooked. Cook cabbage until tender, drain
• 2. Grease 9 x 13 inch casserole. Put rice in bottom and spread it out. Put cooked cabbage on top of rice and evenly distribute it.
• 3. In a bowl combine 2 tablespoons of the butter and the bread crumbs and set aside. I use sliced bread that is getting stale and tear it up into small pieces rather than the fine bread crumbs.
• 4. In a frying pan cook onions in remaining butter and olive oil until soft. Stir in flour, salt and pepper stirring constantly. It will quickly form a paste like product on the onions. Stir in the milk and continue cooking and stirring until mixture thickens and boils for 1 minute. Add ham and heat 1 minute more.
• 5. Pour over the top of the cabbage and spread it out evenly. Cover with the swiss cheese. Top with the bread crumbs and bake at 350° for 30 - 45 minutes until it is bubbly and the bread is starting to brown a bit.

RICE-PARTIALLY COOKED, WITH HAM AND CABBAGE

Steps:

• TOPPING:Coarsely chop ham together with cabbage. RICE:1. Wash rice thoroughly (see HOW-TO, _Rice: To wash), then spread evenly along the bottom of a saucepan. 2. Add the desired quantity of cold water for each cup of rice. (Let rice and water sit covered in pan for 30 minutes before cooking. This softens the rice, but can be omitted.) 3. Bring rice to a boil over 3/4 flame. Boil covered 3 minutes. Reduce flame to 1/2. Boil 2 minutes more, or until most of the liquid is absorbed. (At this point, before the water is completely absorbed, some cooks stir the rice gently from the bottom up so that it will cook more evenly and have less tendency to burn on the bottom. If some rice sticks to the sides of the pot during this stirring, just scrape it down.) 4. Arrange topping mixture over rice then sprinkle with oil and salt. Cook, covered, over low heat until rice is done (15 to 20 minutes). Let stand, covered, 10 to 15 minutes more then serve. NOTE: The topping is cooked as the rice itself steams. Both rice and topping may be stirred together after, but not during, cooking. The rice will stick to the bottom of the pan if stirred too soon.The Thousand Recipe Chinese Cookbook. ©1994 by Gloria Bley Miller.
