One Pot Rice and ground Beef

Cooking all in one pot is something I like very much. This time a filling beef and rice stew.

Ground beef of good quality is expensive in the moment. But I found some 30% off because the expiration date was today.

This hearty rice dish was on my looking forward to list for a while and that offer gave me the reason to cook it.

All other ingredients were at home, so no time to waste.

Recipe for 3:

400 g ground beef

1 tbsp oil

2 beefstock cubes

1 1/4 cup longgrain rice

2 carrots

70 g leek

2 celery stalks

2 green onions

2 garlic cloves

2 bay leaves

1 tsp Italian pepperoni paste

Salt, thyme and pepper

Fresh parsley

850 ml water

Heat up the oil in a large pot and brown the beef very well. Season.

Cut the veghies well and wash the rice. Add the rice first to the beef and stir it well, then the veggies and fill up with water. Add stock cubes and bay leaves.

Bring to a boil, cover and reduce the heat. Simmer for 15 min until rice and veggies are cooked. Add chopped parsley.
