Rice In Tomato Sauce Recipes

SPANISH RICE USING TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• In medium saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add in garlic and onion. Saute 1-2 minutes until softened.
• Add in dry rice. While stirring, cook for about 5 minutes until rice is golden brown.
• Slowly add in broth and tomato sauce into rice, not directly onto hot pan. Stir; bring to boil.
• Turn heat to low and cover. Let simmer for 20 minutes.
• Fluff with fork.

RICE AND TOMATO SOUP

Steps:

• I like to make an unfussy rice and tomato soup (for myself, too, sometimes, especially when I'm trying to balance out my characteristic gluttony) by diluting a good, bought tomato sauce with water, adding a handful or so of basmati rice, and cooking until the rice is tender, about 8 to 10 minutes. With children it makes more sense to leave the soup fairly solid, but you can add water from a boiled kettle toward the end of cooking time if you want a thinner soup rather than liquid tomato-rice stew. Grate Parmesan on top and eat - with bibs.

GREEK TOMATO RICE

Steps:

• Heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat and cook onion and garlic until soft and translucent, about 3 minutes. Add rice; cook and stir until lightly toasted for 2 minutes. Add chicken broth, tomato sauce, parsley, salt, and pepper; bring to a boil.
• Cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until all the liquid is absorbed and rice is done, about 20 minutes.
