HOT LUNCH RECIPE WAGON: Spinach Cook Up Rice

Cook up rice can be as simple or elaborate as you like – made with a variety of ingredients such as ochroes, finely chopped carrots or mushrooms. The dried shrimps are not essential but add something special to the flavoring.  Best served with saltfish or tuna fish and cucumber salad.

1-2 oz dried shrimps

¼ pint water

1 lb rice

½ lb spinach, chopped finely

1 oz margarine

2 cloves garlic

1 medium onion

Sprig of thyme

1 red or green pepper, deseeded and chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

1 thin coconut milk

Hot pepper to taste

Wash the dried shrimps well and soak for an hour, retaining the water.  Wash the rice well until water runs clear.  Set aside.  Gently fry the onion in margarine for a few minutes. Add the peppers, spinach and garlic, then stir. When the spinach has reduced add thyme, dried shrimps and water, rice and coconut milk and stir with a fork. Add salt, freshly ground black pepper or a piece of hot pepper to taste.  Cook on low until the rice is done. Pack warm in a heated lunch tote for a hot lunch on the go.
