TEX-MEX LAZY TOMATO RICE



Tex-Mex Lazy Tomato Rice image

This recipe uses a rice cooker to get a full rice dinner on the table in a fun, fast, hands-off way. We used a Japanese-style cooker, but you could do this with almost any version. The tomato gets super soft and stirs right into the rice, making an instant sauce. Feel free to play with the ingredients and flavor profiles once you have the technique down.

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups long-grain white rice
One 1-ounce package taco seasoning
Kosher salt
One 15.5-ounce can black beans, drained
8 ounces ground beef, cooked and crumbled
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 cup frozen corn, thawed
1 whole tomato, cored
1 lime, halved
1 cup grated Cheddar (4 ounces), for serving, optional
Sour cream, for serving, optional
1 avocado, diced, for serving, optional

Steps:

  • Rinse the rice in a colander until the water runs clear. Put the rice in a 5- to 10-cup rice cooker. Fill with water according to the manufacturer's instructions. Stir in the taco seasoning and 1 teaspoon salt. Add the beans in a small pile. Directly next to the beans, add the ground beef in a pile, then the red pepper, green pepper and corn, so each ingredient has its own section of the circle.
  • Turn the tomato core-side down and make a deep X with a sharp knife across the bottom. Place the tomato in the center of the rice cooker with the X facing up. Close the rice cooker and follow the manufacturer's directions to set to regular white rice.
  • When the cook cycle is complete, carefully open the rice cooker and stir together the ingredients. Squeeze in the lime juice and mix. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt if necessary. Sprinkle with the Cheddar, if desired. Serve with sour cream and avocado if using.

BAKED RICE WITH SLOW-ROASTED TOMATOES AND GARLIC



Baked Rice With Slow-Roasted Tomatoes and Garlic image

Baking rice on a bed of tender vegetables has to be one of the most fail-safe ways to prepare it. Here tangy-sweet tomatoes, garlic and shallots are slowly roasted in olive oil with cinnamon and thyme, then baked with basmati rice until everything is fragrant and soft. Adapted from Yotam Ottolenghi's cookbook, "Ottolenghi Simple," it makes a spectacular side dish to pan-seared meats or fish, or can be the heart of a vegetarian meal with some crumbled feta and pine nuts sprinkled on top for serving.

TOMATO RICE WITH CRISPY CHEDDAR



Tomato Rice With Crispy Cheddar image

I could use all sorts of fancy words to explain this dish, but the best description is this: pizza in rice form. The inspiration for the recipe, though, is oddly enough not Italian - it's a hybrid of a classic South Indian tomato rice with onions and a shockingly fantastic Spanish rice recipe my mom and I photocopied out of my seventh-grade Spanish textbook for a school project. The crispy, bubbly, broiled Cheddar topping (use the sharpest white Cheddar you can find!) adds a little something something, making it a worthy dinner party dish.

Categories     grains and rice, side dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small yellow onion, finely chopped (about 1 cup)
1 small Indian green chile or Serrano chile, finely chopped
10 plum tomatoes (about 2 pounds), cut into 1/2-inch pieces, or 1 (28-ounce) can whole or diced tomatoes, strained
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 cups cooked basmati rice (from about 1 cup dry rice)
1 cup shredded sharp white Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Adjust an oven rack to the highest position and heat the oven to 500 degrees.
  • In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium-high. When the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and chile, spread them out in an even layer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion becomes translucent and starts to lightly char, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Increase the heat to high and add the tomatoes, using the back of a wooden spoon to lightly crush them. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break down into a chunky sauce, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the salt and remove from heat.
  • Stir in the cooked rice and transfer to an 8-inch square (or similar size) baking dish. Sprinkle the grated cheese on top in an even layer.
  • Switch the oven to broil and place the baking dish on the oven rack closest to the broiler. Broil until the top bubbles and turns golden brown, about 3 minutes. Serve immediately.
