BAKED HAM AND CHEESE RICE CASSEROLE



Baked Ham and Cheese Rice Casserole image

A simple, cheesy dish from Every Night Italian. The arborio rice gives this a lucious texture. I used grated mozzarella from a bag and it was just fine.

Provided by pattikay in L.A.

Categories     Ham

Time 45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 cups arborio rice
4 tablespoons butter (plus more for rice and baking dish)
2 cups milk
1/4 cup flour
6 ounces boiled ham, sliced thin and chopped
3/4 cup grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese
6 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400.
  • Fill a pot with 3 qts of water and bring to a boil; add rice and stir well.
  • Cook covered for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until rice is cooked but still firm to the bite.
  • Drain and transfer to a mixing bowl. Toss the rice with a bit of butter to prevent grains from sticking together.
  • While the rice is cooking, make a bechamel sauce. Heat the milk till you can see steam rising (do not boil). Melt the 4 T butter in a heavy saucepan over medium low heat.
  • Add the flour and whisk till smooth. Add the hot milk a few tablespoons at a time at first, whisking till mixture is smooth before adding more milk.
  • It will likely be very thick at first, but will become thinner as you whisk in more milk. As it thins, you can mix in more milk at a time.
  • Cook, whisking constantly over medium low heat till sauce thickly coats the whisk. Season with salt and pepper and remove from heat.
  • Pour the bechamel sauce over the rice, reserving a few spoonfuls for the top of the casserole. Add the ham and all but 2 T of the parmigiano-reggiano.
  • Mix well and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Butter the bottom and sides of a 2 1/2 qt baking dish that is about 3 1/2 inches deep.
  • Pour in half the rice mixture. Slice the mozzarella about 1/8 inch thick and layer the slices over the rice.
  • Add the remaining rice mixture and smooth the surface with a spoon.
  • Spread the remaining bechamel over the top and sprinkle with the remaining 2 T parmegiano-reggiano.
  • Bake for 15 minutes. If after 15 minutes, the top is not speckled with brown, place the casserole under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, or till top begins to brown.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to settle for about 5 minutes before serving.

Try this with different kinds of ham, ex: smoked ham or honey ham and Kings Hawaiian also makes those party rolls in wheat-yum!

These are so good, I am asked to bring them...

12 slices Swiss cheese (thinly sliced)
Glaze
1/2 cup (8 tablespoons) butter
2 tablespoons brown sugar

  • Preheat your oven before baking the ham. This will help to ensure that the ham cooks evenly.
  • Cover the ham with foil while baking. This will help to keep the ham moist and juicy.
  • Baste the ham with the glaze of your choice during the last 30 minutes of baking. This will help to give the ham a delicious caramelized crust.
  • Let the ham rest for 15-20 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help to ensure that the ham is tender and juicy.
