1 1/2 cups uncooked long grain rice

3 tablespoons margarine or 3 tablespoons vegan margarine
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped fine
5 baby carrots, chopped fine
2 celery ribs, trimmed and chopped fine
2 cups vegetable broth
2 cups water
2 chicken bouillon cubes (or vegetable)
1 -2 bay leaf

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • First you will need to get out a 3 or 4 quart casserole or baking dish that has a lid.
  • Take 1 of the 3 tablespoons of butter, and rub it along the inside of your dish.
  • Add uncooked rice and set aside.
  • In a pan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter, and add spaghetti pieces and toss occasionally until nice and brown.
  • Do not burn them!
  • but allow them to get nice and brown; Add to rice.
  • In same pan, add olive oil, and heat over medium high heat.
  • Add onion, carrot, and celery to pan and saute for approx 7-8 minutes until all are slightly tender.

  • Add bouillon cubes and turn down heat, stirring until cubes dissolve completely.
  • Pour broth mixture over rice and vegetables and stir through.
  • Add bay leaf.
  • Cover with lid, and put in your preheated oven.
  • You will need to cook this approximately 40-55 minutes, depending on your oven.
  • (I say this, because when I came up with this dish I was at school and it took 50-55 minutes and here at home it took about 45 minutes) Please watch after 40 minutes.
  • Broth will absorb and rice should be soft.
  • Remove from oven and let sit, covered for 15 minutes.
