Ingredients 1 ingredient

  1. one-half cup of hot cream

Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Boiling water and steam. Turn pan handles inward, away from the edge of the hob. Lift lids away from you, and pour hot water away from your body: steam burns too.

Method

  1. Prepare as apple rice, and let the rice boil until tender.
  2. Then drain a few preserved or canned apricots and add them to the rice, also a piece of butter or one-half cup of hot cream.
  3. Mix well.
  4. Serve with lean meat, eggs, or cheese.
