1 tsp t
75 g ter

1 tsp per
1 cup frozen s

Pour the rice into a seive or colander and rinse well with cold water - not 100% necessary but ecourages the rice not to stick to each other. Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil and add the rice, once the pan comes back to the boil turn down the heat so that you have a rolling boil and stir just once - now add a lid or cover with a plate, I find the best results come from letting some of the steam out so leave the plate/lid slightly ajar. Get the onion and chop very finely (a shallot will be a little more delicate but an onion will be fine). After 10 minutes you should have perfect individual rice - it may be 9 minutes or 12 but try to your taste. When done, pour the rice into the colander and rince with boiling water from the kettle. Place the peas in a microwavable dish and cook on full power for 3 minutes, shaking half way through. Chop the butter into small cubes and place in a serving dish, now add the rice and sprinkle the peas, onion and pepper - toss well so that the butter and ingredients coat the rice.

Into the food processor: Zucchini, Green olives, Olives, Tomatoes. Pulse it a few times until you get the consistantsy you want. Put in bowl, add garlic, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, season with salt and pepper. This is great on crackers. I used a left over potatoe roll that I sliced and toasted, which was perfect, the sweetness of the roll mixed with the tangy veggies?.this was great. Grilled and Chilled Zucchini Slices (I had these at an elegant baby shower that was catered) 4 Zucchini's washed and sliced in coins on the diagonal Sea Salt Pepper Olive oil Dried basil Non-stick stove top grill pan You need to get your pan really hot, sprinkle a little olive oil, and lay your zucchini down, top with salt and pepper. When they start looking cooked, check?then turn over, you want a black grill mark. Check for doneness. You will have to do in batches. When they are grilled to perfection, place in a container lined with 2 paper towels, layer your zucchini on paper towels, putting 2 paper towels between each layer, because they will sweat a little in the refer, you want to absorb the water so your zucchini is still a little crunchy and not soggy. To present, lay them down in layers on a pretty plate and top with (I put olive oil, balsamic vinegar and 1 minced garlic in a squeeze bottle) a few sprinkles of your oil, vinegar mix. Crush some dried basil in your hand to release oils, and sprinkly on top. Be sure to sprinkle the oil mix on the veggies when you are ready to serve so as not to make them soggy.
