This recipe also derives from The Daily Mail Cookbook.
Moderate heat. Time 30 minutes.
Ingredients.- 4ozs. rice; 1 oz. fat; 1 gill tomato pulp; salt and pepper; 1 dessertspoonful grated cheese.
Method.- Wash the rice, soak it for 12 hours, and put it to cook in boiling water to which salt has been added. When the rice has boiled for about seven minutes, strain off the water, melt the fat in a pan, add the rice, and fry it gently for a few minutes. Pour in the tomato pulp, and let it simmer very gently with the rice until the latter is swelled and soft. If found too stiff add a little stock or water. Season well with pepper and salt.
To dish.- Place in a gratin dish or pie dish. Sprinkle over with grated cheese and serve hot.
Reasons for failure.- If the rice is not simmered gently and stirred often it will burn. It is best to cook it in a double saucepan.
