Ingredients:
1 1/2 cup Brown rice
2 tbsp Virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Butter
1 Eggplant (10-12 oz) cut in 1/2-inch cubes
1 medium Onion cut into 1/4-inch squares
Salt
1 small Green bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch squares
1 small Red or yellow pepper or a mixture, cut into 1/2-inch squares
2 medium Tomatoes, peeled, seeded and cut into large pieces -OR-
15 oz -Canned Tomatoes, drained and cut into large pieces
4 tsp Ground cumin
1/2 tsp Turmeric
1/4 tsp Ground ginger
1/4 tsp Ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp Freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup Chopped parsley or cilantro
3 cup Water
1 cup Dried provolone (optional) =OR=- Monterey Jack =OR=- Muenster cheese
Instructions:
RINSE THE RICE, cover it with water and set it aside to soak while you
prepare the rest of the vegetables. Preheat the oven to 375F. Warm
the oil and butter in a large skillet. Add the eggplant and onion,
salt them lightly, and rapidly saute them to distribute the oil. Cook
over medium heat until the eggplant is soft but not mushy, about 5
minutes. Add the peppers, tomatoes, spices (including the pepper),
parsley and more salt to taste. Stir carefully, combining everything
well. Drain the rice and add it to the pan along with 3 cups water.
Turn up the heat to bring the water to a boil, then transfer
everything to a baking dish, such as a large, earthenware gratin
dish. Lay a piece of parchment over the top, cover with foil, and
bake until the rice is done, about 45 minutes. Toss the diced cheese,
if you're using it, into the rice and serve. Serves 4 as a main
course or 6 to 8 as a side dish.
