Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no oven temperature. The 300°F (150°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point.

Prepare

  1. Wash the rice thoroughly.

  2. Place the rice in a baking dish with water and salt.

Bake and serve

  1. Bake at 300°F (150°C) for 1.5 to 2 hours.

  2. Serve in the same dish with meat gravy poured over the rice.
