corn rice
with any leftover white basmati or jasmine rice, we often make this dish for lunch
- pot of organic rice (brown or white / leftover or fresh cooked)
- package of organic frozen corn (or fresh if you are thus blessed)
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 3 scallions
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- bragg's liquid aminos to taste
- few dashes each of black pepper and cayenne pepper (or to taste)
|
chop up scallions and parsley then heat the oil in a large skillet and sautee them for a minute...
add rice (if using leftover rice, add 1/2 to 1 cup of fresh water to re-hydrate if the rice has
become stiff)... turn the heat down to medium-high & keep stirring and turning the rice over constantly
for another minute... next add the frozen corn, mix well and continue turning it over every few seconds
to make it brown but not burn... now add the black and red pepper and the bragg's - stir well...
keep doing this for another 5-10 minutes (depending on your rice and how you prefer it)...
its done when everythings soft, hot, and well mixed...
VARIATION: this can be served with any kind of bean or veggie burger (pictured: organic sunshine burger), but it is especially good with crumbled tofu mixed in - take 1/2 lb. or more of fresh tofu and crumble it into the mix before adding the frozen corn - mix well, then proceed... serve with a fresh salad, greens, or steamed veggies... VARIATIONS: add diced green pepper, shredded carrots, green olives, or hot peppers
