Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Cook rice and transfer into a medium casserole dish. (Check my post, How to cook rice, for detailed instructions).
  2. In the meantime, sauté meat in oil until no longer red.
  3. While the meat is cooking, dice onion into small pieces and grate the carrot.
  4. Add onion to the meat and sauté until translucent. Add carrot and sauté 2-3 minutes more, or until soft. Add corn and mix everything well together until the corn is warmed through.
  5. Add the whipping cream, egg, herbs, salt and pepper and mix everything together.
  6. Add the meat mixture to the casserole dish, layering everything evenly over the rice. Sprinkle with the grated cheese.
  7. Bake at 340°F (170°C) for 20 minutes. Serve hot.

Notes

  • Note: the small corn cans here in Germany are about 5 oz. If you add more corn (because your can is bigger) it shouldn't be a problem. As long as you are not doubling the amount.
