Vegetarian Osvo (Osh-Sevo)--Bochari Rice Cholent image

It sounds crazy, I know--putting fruit and tomatoes in a rice dish that cooks overnight in a crockpot. But all the ingredients blend together into a sweet, savory, sticky rice cholent that is just delicious. Bocharim know rice, and they know how to cook!

Time 16h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tomatoes, cubed
1 granny smith apple, cubed
3 apricots, cubed
3 plums, cubed
3 dates, cubed
1/3 cup tomato paste
3 1/2 cups risotto rice
1 tablespoon coarse salt (or more)

Steps:

  • Cover the bottom of the cholent pot with oil & heat.
  • Add tomatoes, then apple, then apricots, then plums, then dates.
  • Cover the pot and leave it covered. Let the juices dry up and then add the rice, tomato paste, and enough water to cover everything with 1cm to spare.
  • Cover the pot with a dish towel and then with a lid, and simmer until the water dries up.
  • Seal the pot well by covering it with aluminum foil, and put on the hot plate right before Shabbat. Eat the following morning for Shabbat brunch.
  • PS: the bottom of the pot will have rice that has burnt into a caramelized delicious goo. This is called "tadigi" and is usually the best part!
