In the frozen food section, you can buy a bag of rice with vegetables called Hawaiian Blend. But it is very easy to prepare a dish from the ingredients that make up the freezer yourself. The vibrant Hawaiian blend is used in some salads and can serve as a delicious dish in its own right. When homemade, make your own recipe changes. With a lot of vegetables, you will get a light dish, and with the addition of rice, you will get a hearty one.
It is necessary
-
- long grain rice (200 g);
- green peas (150 g);
- corn grains (150 g);
- red bell pepper (1 piece);
- green or yellow bell peppers (1 piece);
- salt;
- ham (250 g);
- egg (2 pieces);
- mayonnaise
Instructions
Step 1
Put a kettle of water on the fire. While it is boiling, rinse the rice thoroughly under the tap in a colander or sieve. The water from the rice should drain completely clear. Place the rice in a saucepan and cover with boiling water two fingers above the rice level.
Step 2
Boil the rice in salted water until tender. Throw in a colander, let it drain. Leave in an open saucepan to let all the steam escape and the rice dries and cools a little.
Step 3
Place the frozen green peas and corn in a deep saucepan. You can use these canned vegetables. Shell fresh sugar pea pods during summer.
Step 4
Wash the bell peppers. Cut it in half and remove the inside. Rinse again with cold water to remove all seeds. Cut the peppers into small cubes and place in a saucepan with the peas and corn.
Step 5
Add half a cup of hot water from the kettle to the vegetables. Close the lid and simmer for 5 to 7 minutes. Dump the prepared rice for vegetables, stir. Heat the mixture to a minimum and cover for another five minutes.
Step 6
The colored Hawaiian garnish is ready, you can serve it on the table, or you can cool it down and use it to make a salad.
Step 7
Boil hard boiled eggs. Place them under the tap with cold water, let them cool down and will be easy to peel off the shell.
Step 8
Cut the ham into cubes and place in a salad bowl. Chop the eggs there, add the cold rice-vegetable mixture. Season with mayonnaise. The salad is ready.
