CHEESY BAKED RICE
May 18, 2016A quick and easy one pot dish. |
A good way to let my LO consume a balanced and nutritious meal with ingredients from several food groups. |
Ingredients:
- Cooked rice, according to personal appetite (Slightly more than 1/2 a cup for my LO)
- 1 large prawn, shell and vein removed
- 1/2 a long bean, chopped
- 3 florets of cauliflower, steamed
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/2 tbsp butter
- Cheddar cheese, shredded
- Some Italian herbs and ground black pepper for seasoning
- Olive oil, for stir frying
- Preheat oven to 160°C.
- Cut prawn into small pieces and marinade with some ground black pepper.
- Heat up olive oil, stir-fry chopped long beans and prawn pieces til 80% cooked. Set aside.
- Heat up butter and sauté garlic til fragrant. Stir in cooked rice and stir-fry til rice is fragrant and coated with butter.
- Add in prawns, long beans and cauliflower. Season with Italian herbs and ground black pepper. Mix well.
- Transfer half of the rice into an oven safe ramekin. Sprinkle some shredded cheese and mix well.
- Add in remaining rice and top with shredded cheese.
You may sprinkle some olive oil and more herbs, if you like, before covering the rice with cheese. - Bake in preheated oven til cheese is melted but not golden brown. This way, you'll have a creamier cheese taste. Serve.
