How to make Oven rice with hearts of palm:

The first thing you should do is cook the rice. For this, remember that for every cup of rice you must add two cups of water, add salt to your liking. Preheat oven to 180°C.

Now you must prepare the filling of this delicious simple oven rice. Chop the hearts of palm, peppers, mushrooms, onions and chives and, in a skillet, mix these ingredients with the butter and corn. Cook until tender, remove from heat and set aside.

Then prepare the white sauce for the oven rice. To do this, put the milk, cream, flour, curd and butter in a pan and cook until thickened. In another container, dissolve the asparagus cream in a cup of water at room temperature, it does not need to be placed on fire.

Tip: Asparagus cream is used in this recipe to add flavor and creaminess to the rice. However it is an optional ingredient.

When the sauce is done, remove from heat. Mount this rice in a different oven on a platter or mold that can be placed in the oven:

Put a layer of rice, a layer of vegetables and cover with a little mozzarella cheese;

Add a layer of sauce and, finally, a part of the asparagus cream;

Repeat this process until the ingredients are gone.

It is very important that the last layer is rice so you can sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top.

Tip: If you want to make this process easier, you can mix the rice and white sauce, so you'll have fewer layers of ingredients.

Bake the rice with hearts of palm until the cheese is au gratin, this can take about 10-15 minutes depending on the oven power. When ready, remove and serve hot. If you want to make your meal even more complete, check out our options for sides for oven rice:
