How to Make Beef And Basmati Rice Casserole
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large skillet, brown 1 lb ground beef with 1 medium chopped onion (about 1 cup) over medium-high heat, until the beef is browned and the onion is softened. Drain off any excess grease.
- Spray a 3-quart casserole dish with cooking spray.
- Transfer the browned beef and onion mixture to the prepared casserole dish.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 ½ cups basmati rice, 28 ounces (794ml) canned crushed tomatoes, 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup, 1 cup beef broth, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper.
- Pour the rice mixture evenly over the meat in the casserole dish.
- Cover the casserole dish with a lid or aluminum foil.
- Bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the casserole is heated through. Stir gently halfway through baking.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
