Tomatoes with rise

Tomatoes with rise

This is a nice meal, that could been made in any time in the year.

Necessary products:
1 tea cup of rise
1 onion
2-3 carrots
2-3 peppers
4-5 tomatoes
a spoon ful of oil
Spices:
red pepper
black pepper
a spoon ful of sugar
basilsavory                                                           rosemary


Method of preparation:


Cut the onion in small pieces (as we can). In a pot heat up (in a moderately high fire) the oil and fry the onion to until it gets a golden color.





Cut the peppers and carrots in small pieces and inset them to the onion. After that put the pot's cover and leave it not for a long time, wilt the vegetables become soft.





Peel the tomatoes (if it's needed) and puree them, or shred them with a grater.





Inset them to the other vegetables and after all this boiled, it should looks like this:





Admeasure rise with one cup of tea, after that clean the rise from shuck, little pebbles and others and wash it with water.
Inset it to the vegetables in the pot and mix it.



Fill 2 glasses of tea with hot water. It's better if you boil the water in hot plate, but in microwave.
Spill out the water to the vegetables and rise and put the cover.



When everything's boiling, it looks like this.
It's time for spices. You must to put red and black pepper. I had pepper's melange (pink, white, green and black pepper), which aren't that hot as they sound like :)
It's good if you inset a spoon of sugar, to take off this tomato's acid taste.
You put savory by request, but it's better with it. (It's a Bulgarian national spice.) And basil - it's better we have grown locally at home!
I missed to tag the rosemary in the picture!
As much as appropriate spices you inset in the right volume, as tasty your meal would be! :)


After you put the spices, mix it and put the cover. Wait it to boil about 5 minutes and turn off the hot plate. Ought to stay closed. By this way the rise will take the water and it will swell by it self. There's no need to be mixed while the hot plate is turned off. But you can mix it before you turned it off.
It looks like this when it's ready. Let's served it...


The meal could be served with parsley on the top. Possibly fresh :)
By request you can add olives on the top.
A variation of this meal is Tomatoes with rise and olives, but I like more this one! :)
Good luck to anyone who decides to make it!
