Found this recipe years ago in a magazine and we never parted! The great flavor of this rice dish works best when served with a simple fish or chicken dish. Please use fresh Parmesan cheese. Ingredients:
600 ml water |
12 ounces long grain rice, washed and drained |
1 teaspoon salt |
6 ounces grated parmesan cheese |
4 eggs |
2 lemons, zest of |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
1 ounce butter |
Directions:
1. Bring the water to the boil, then stir in the rice and the salt and boil for two minutes.
2. Lower the heat, cover the pan, and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes or until all the water is absorbed, turn off the heat and let the rice stand for a few minutes.
3. Beat the eggs in a bowl and add the cheese, rind and lemon juice, mix.
4. Melt the butter in a large frying pan; add the rice and then the egg mixture, mixing it very thoroughly.
5. Cook on a gentle heat whilst stirring until the cheese melts.
6. Turn into a dish and serve right away, do not let it stand around.
