I recently purchased your Cook'n Recipe Software and love it! I have tried several other cookbook programs but found them unsatisfactory.

My main goal was to put my own recipes into a system that was easy and quick. I have put in about 20 so far, and I love it. It is so easy to use.

I have tried several of your recipes and they all have been wonderful!

Thank you!!

Arborio Rice Cake with Mushroom and Olive Ragout

Serves: 6

Print this Recipe

Linda Miranda - Wakefield, Rhode Island
Bake-Off® Contest 40, 2002
Baked rice cakes are an adaptation of risotto, a creamy rice mixture made with Arborio rice. The crusty rice cake wedges are a nice texture contrast to the vegetable ragout spooned over the top. The ragout, a thick well-seasoned French stew, makes this a hearty main dish, and no one will miss the meat.


   RICE CAKE
   2/3 cup uncooked short-grain Arborio rice
   1 1/3 cups water
   1 tablespoon butter
   1/2 cup Parmesan dry bread crumbs
   1 egg
   1 egg white
   2 ounces (1/2 cup) grated Asiago cheese
   2 tablespoons finely chopped green onions
   2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley
   
   RAGOUT
   2 tablespoons olive oil
   1 medium sweet onion, sliced
   2 cloves garlic, minced
   2 (4 1/2-ounce) cans sliced mushrooms, drained
   1 (14 1/2-ounce) can diced tomatoes with Italian seasonings, undrained
   1/4 cup sliced ripe olives
   1/4 cup sliced green olives
   1 tablespoon capers, rinsed, if desired
   1/8 teaspoon pepper
