    Rice Casserole with Brussel Sprouts and Bell Pepper

    Posted by admin on 18th August 2009

    Rice Casserole with Brussel Sprouts and Bell Pepper

    150 grams brown rice — *

    1 vegetable bouillon cube

    250 grams Brussel sprouts

    1 red bell pepper

    100 grams Leerdammer cheese

    2 eggs — beaten lightly

    3/4 teaspoon basil

    2 tablespoons creme fraiche

    5 sprigs chives — for garnish

    - - - - Optional Cashew Garnish - - - - 100 grams cashews

    1 1/2 tablespoons honey

    1 knifepoint sambal — about 1/4 tsp

    * Original recipe called for broken white rice, which cooks faster. I used round brown rice instead.

    Start rice cooking with bouillon cube. Warm grill [or oven] to highest.

    Clean the sprouts. Cook in boiling water [?or steam] for about 10 min. Meanwhile, wash the bell pepper and chop it. Add to the sprouts and cook another 5 min, till both are done. Drain.

    Grate about 1/4 of the cheese; slice the rest.

    Into the rice, stir the sprouts and bell pepper, eggs, basil, grated cheese, and creme fraiche. Turn into a flat casserole dish or two individual dishes. Top with sliced cheese. Put under the grill for about 5 min, until the cheese is melted. Top with chives. Serve with cashew garnish.

    To make cashew garnish: In a small saucepan or skillet over medium-high heat, stir together cashews, ho ney, and sambal, about 5min.
