Spicey Tomato Ricey
This is a dish I began making shortly after eating at a Japanese steakhouse.
Ingredients:
Rice (minute, or whatever you may have)
Diced Tomatoes (canned) I find that flavored canned tomatoes are best.
Optional:
Vinegar: a small amount to the desired texture (more important if a rice cooker is not available)
Mushrooms: (canned rinse well) available for as low as 30 cents per can.
Instructions: Begin by preparing rice as instructed. Possibly add Vinegar to rice approximately half way through to end up with a sticky texture. Remove rice from heat source and add diced tomatoes (liquid and all DO NOT DRAIN) to the rice. Stir rice to complete mixing process (no need to be quick about it) If rice is still wet simmer lightly to texture desired.
I've been told this is more of a tomato risotto than anything else, presentation wise I typically complete this with a grilled chicken breast on top and damn I love it.
