Lately my family doesn’t want any bakes. But this recipe was the only one that I liked and wanted to prepare for the Rice week. I said that I’m gonna make it you like it or not And only when I saw how my family was eating this bake I remembered that rice and curd are the most favourite ingredients so this bake had to be a hit from the beginning. And one more point for this bake – it’s just slightly sweet. That’s why I heard compliment from my hubby. He said that this bake is probably the best that he ever ate So you look at the last piece of bake and it disappeared very quickly after I did some shots.

black pepper

1 l hot chicken or vegetable stock

60 g grated parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons choped parsley for decoration

In a big pot melt butter. When it will start to bubble, put onions, ham, garlic and fry on low heat for about 3-5 minutes till onions become soft but don’t change it’s color. Don’t forget to mix from time to time. Pour rice and mix to coat with butter. Pour frozen peas and seasonings. Pour half stock and constantly mixing stew on low heat till there will be no liquid. Then pour a little bit more stock and heat again till it soak to rice. Repeat it till rice become soft and the mixture – thick. It will take about 25 minutes.

For the first time in my life I ate sweet buckwheat bake I don’t use buckwheat preparing food. Mostly we eat them only cooked with a lot of butter, and sometime we add some curd into them. But it’s boring, and this bake was something new. We ate it with strawberry jam and it was really tasty. I made a photo of the last piece that I grabbed from my husband plate That means that this recipe is really great. Though in the beginning I was very sceptical.

1 glass cooked buckwheat

200 g curd

2 eggs

2 tablespoons sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt
