VEGETARIAN ROAST
Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------------------8 1/2 oz Long grain rice 7 oz Button mushrooms, finely -chopped 5 oz Whole grain bread crumbs 5 oz Nuts (any kind such as -almonds, brazil nuts or -unsalted peanuts), chopped 5 oz Low fat mozzarella cheese 4 Eggs 4 md Carrots, grated 3 md Onions, chopped 1/4 c Sunflower or safflower oil 1/4 c Dried parsley 1/2 ts Ground black pepper 1/4 ts Garlic powder ** Procedure 1) Cook the rice in boiling water for 30 to 35 minutes, until tender, or use an automatic rice cooker. 250g of rice is about 2 small automatic rice cooker cups, but please check your rice cooker to be sure. When using an automatic rice cooker, add a little more water for brown rice than you would for white. ie. if you cook 2 small rice cooker cups of brown rice, then fill the rice cooker pot to the 3 level with water. 2) Thoroughly blend everything in a large bowl or pot. Then pack the mixture into 2 medium sized (1.4 l or 1.4 quarts) loaf tins, which have been lightly oiled. 3) Bake at 350F (180C) for 1 to 1 1/4 hours or until firm to touch and brown on top. Vegetarian Roast is traditionally served, hot or cold, with tomato sauce or chutney. |
