When developing this recipe, I had a clear vision of what I wanted — a rice dish that had original flavor, really good texture, was easy to put together, and yet presented nicely, with color and class. After a few tries, this one passed my palate test. My tasters raved about it. Best thing is that there are no pots or pans to clean up afterwards!

Ingredients

Roasted Vegetable Rice

  • 1 cup round white rice (see note)

  • 1 medium carrot, diced

  • 1/2 large red pepper, diced

  • 1 medium onion, diced

  • 5 champignon mushrooms, thinly sliced

  • 2 and 1/2 cups boiling water

  • 2 teaspoons pareve chicken soup mix (optional but recommended)

  • 1 teaspoon Manischewitz Kosher Salt

  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

  • 1 clove garlic, quartered or halved in length

  • 3–4 tablespoons Tuscanini Olive Oil

  • grated lemon rind from 1/2 lemon (approximately 1 tablespoon)

  • small handful fresh dill, chopped

Directions

Prepare the Roasted Vegetable Rice

1.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Line a 9×13-inch (23×33-centimeter) baking pan with Gefen Parchment Paper, if desired.

2.

Pour rice into pan in an even layer. Add veggies in order listed. Mix together boiling water, soup mix, salt, lemon juice, and garlic. Pour over rice. Drizzle olive oil over all. Cover well and bake for 10 minutes.

3.

Lower temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) and continue baking for an additional half hour. Remove from oven. Leave covered for 10 minutes. Uncover and add the lemon rind and dill, and mix together well.

Tips:

For a nice presentation, press into muffin tins while still warm and turn over. Garnish with fresh dill, if desired.

Notes:

This recipe doubles easily. You can sub the rice of your choice, but I found round white rice to have the best texture here.

This is a very tasty dish and looks appetising too. Reheated nicely on hotplate for Shabbos lunch.

I would follow the directions on the back of the brown rice but I think it’s 2 cups of liquid for every cup of rice.
