Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 2 large egg yolks
- 2½ cups heavy whipping cream
- ½ small white or yellow onion (small diced)
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 cup plus ¼ of chopped fresh parsley (for sprinkling on top)
- 1 teaspoon salt (or more if desired)
- 1 pinch ground black pepper
- 8 oz shredded mozzarella cheese or other of your choice (about 2½ cups, I used Colby & Monterey Jack)
- 8 oz chopped deli ham (about 2½ cups)
- 2 cups cooked long-grain white rice (either chilled or at room temperature)
- 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Instruction
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease with softened butter and then flour (it can be a gluten-free one) a medium baking dish; set aside.
- NOTE: If desired, you can place chunks of onion and carrot plus 1 cup of fresh parsley into a food processor and process until obtaining small pieces -- to avoid having to chop them by hand.
- In a large bowl, whisk the yolks with the heavy cream. Add the onion, carrot, 1 cup of chopped parsley, salt and pepper, mozzarella, ham, and rice. Stir with a wooden spoon until obtaining a homogeneous mixture.
- Place rice mixture into the greased/floured baking dish. Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese on top evenly. Bake, uncovered, for about 25-30 minutes on the lowest oven rack. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of chopped parsley on top and serve. Enjoy!
