French Onion Baked Rice
Serves 4-6
Prep time – 15 minutes
Ingredients:
1 Tub of Chris’ Homestyle French Dip
1 1/3 cups of Basmati or Brown Rice
3 rashers of rindless bacon, diced
5 button mushrooms, sliced
1.5 cups of shredded light tasty cheese
2 eggs, lightly whisked
3 tsps of fresh thyme leaves
Method:
Cook the rice as per packet instructions, being careful not to overcook.
In a fry pan, fry the bacon and mushrooms until the bacon begins to crisp (add a little oil if needed).
Grease a (approx.) 20cm x 12cm oven dish with a generous spray of olive oil.
Once the rice is cooked, drain very well from excess water and place in a large bowl.
To the bowl, add the eggs, 1 cup of the cheese, all of the Chris’ French Onion Dip, the bacon and mushroom mix and 2 teaspoons of the fresh thyme leaves. Mix well.
Add the mix to the oven dish and top with the remaining cheese.
Bake at 180c for 20-25 minutes or until the edges are firm and crisping and the cheese on top begins to go golden. 8. Allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving, then serve topped with the remaining thyme.
