Desperate kielbasa and rice — Ninja Speedi
1 cup of rice
2 cups of water
1 kielbasa, sliced
1 can of cream of mushroom soup. Then shake the remaining bits out using half a can of water
Set 10 minutes on the steam setting.
2023-08-27: This time I wanted to try to get the kielbasa browned a bit, so I used the steam and bake setting using 5 minutes at 390° with 2.5 cups of water. Turned out well. Next time I'll try either a longer time or a higher temp to see if I can get it more brown.
2023-09-14: This time I wanted to try to get the kielbasa browned a bit, so I used the steam and bake setting using 6 minutes at 390° with 2.5 cups of water.
- Put 2.5 cups of water, 1 cup of rice, a handful of canned jalapeño slices, and one can of cream of mushroom soup in pot.
- Fill the can half full of water and give it a good shake to get the stuff off the sides. Pour into pot.
- Put tray in upper position. Slice kielbasa into rounds and arrange in a single layer on the tray.
- Use the steam and bake setting for 6 minutes at 390°.
Results: I really liked the browning on the kielbasa. The rice was pretty sticky on the bottom of the pot, so I scraped it up right away. The texture of the rice surprised me. I should try this again next time but add the soup/water at the end to see if I like that better.
2023-09-16: This time I wanted to try to adding the soup at the end.
- Put 2.5 cups of water and 1 cup of rice in pot.
- Put tray in upper position. Slice kielbasa into rounds and arrange in a single layer on the tray.
- Use the steam and bake setting for 6 minutes at 390°.
- Remove kielbasa to a bowl.
- Add mushroom soup to rice. Fill the can half full of water. Shake to get the rest of the soup loose. Add to rice. Mix.
Results: I like the creamy consistency of the rice better this way, but when you add the soup mix, of course, it cools the rice off. I should do two more experiments. 1. Heat the soup and water in the microwave and then add to rice at the end. 2. Start with rice, 3 cups of water, soup and half a can of water.
