8/20/2006 - Rice and onions
It's been a while since I posted a recipe. Today I tried something that Savta fed us once -- rice and fried onions. Nothing special:
Rice: Make 3 cups, dropping salt and a tab of margarine in with the boiling water.
Onions: 1 small onion, cut rings in quarters and fry.
Mix.
It didn't work, but you could see that it might. For starters, the mixing didn't go well. I didn't leave enough room in the bowl to mix thoroughly (without spilling). Also, the onions weren't very mushy, and didn't really mix in. I can imagine somehow saucing up the onions or boozhing them (as Spring might say).
Also, I used canola oil and the taste was not where I wanted it. Maybe this is the ideal time for olive oil -- I have to think about that.
I'm taking suggestions.
19,000 experimental steps today. Cheers,

Here's another approach. Do the mixing before the cooking. Saute a minced clove of garlic a minced onion in 1 tbs. of olive oil for 8 to 10 minutes. Then add 2 cups of water & bring to boil. Add rice, salt & pepper to taste, and maybe some raisins or dried cranberries for fun. Mix & return to boil. Cover & reduce heat. Leave on low flame for approx. 20 minutes. Enjoy.
Another option: fully caramelize the onions first. It takes hours (and lots of onions), but you can do a lot of them and have some for later.
