Rice ‘N Eggs ‘N Cheese

Rice ‘N Eggs ‘N Cheese

I almost always have leftover rice when I cook it, and I get tired of always making fried rice the next day. Here is an alternative that makes a tasty substitute for hashbrowns.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 cups cooked rice
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup grated cheese
  • Salt and pepper
  • Butter for frying

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Turn on broiler. Mix together rice, eggs, and half the cheese. Season to taste.
  2. Melt butter in fry pan and add mixture when bubbly.
  3. Cook over medium heat until browned on the bottom, about 6 – 8 minutes.
  4. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top and place in broiler about 6 inches from heat. Cook until cheese melts and the dish is nicely browned.

Serves four. Depending on entrée choose an appropriate Taft Street wine.
