The rice base is an excellent ingredient to use in many dishes, so I've made a little extra here to save for later and have with some fish.
Ingredients:
2 sticks of Celery
1 large carrot
1 green pepper
1 baby leak
3 spring onions
1 large clove of garlic
coconut oil
4 eggs (2 per person)
wild rice (as much as you would cook for 2)
1 tin Coconut milk
1 teaspoon freshly ground chilli powder
Watercress
Freshly cooked beetroot
Salt, Pepper, Fish Sauce (optional)
Open your tin of coconut milk and pour into a saucepan. Add your wild rice and start to simmer. Whilst this is cooking….
Take your celery, carrots, green pepper, leak, spring onions and garlic and cut into very small cubes. If you haven’t done this before it’s quickest if you cut them into strips them take the knife across them to get your cubes.
Heat some coconut oil in a large pan and gently sweat off the vegetables with the teaspoon of chilli powder.
By this time the rice will have been been cooking for about 10 minutes and will have reduced in volume a little as the rice absorbs the coconut milk. Add this rice and milk mix to the vegetables and stir. If you're using fish sauce, add about a table spoon at this time. If not then season with salt as you usually would.
Leave this on the heat until the rice is cooked. It’s a little bit like a risotto, but because I used wild rice, there is less starch so it’s not as sticky as you’d usually expect with a risotto.
When the rice is nearly ready (it will take about 20 minutes if using wild rice) get some water on the build and poach your eggs.
To serve place the rice on a plate and top with some fresh watercress. Add the eggs in the middle and then place a quartered cooked beetroot around the edges.
Hey presto! A delicious breakfast that will keep you going all morning.
Enjoy!
