Step 1 of 6
Presh me Oriz (Albanian Leek and Rice Bake)
Heat the oven to 350°F. Fry the leeks in a small dash of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat for a few minutes, until they start to brown.
— Stir continuously to prevent the leeks from catching and burning.
Step 2
Add the onion and ground lamb and keep frying, stirring often, until the lamb is browned and no longer pink.
Step 3
Add the rice and stir for a few minutes until it is well coated in the juices.
Step 4
Add the lamb stock, salt and pepper. Stir well and bring to the boil. Boil for 2 minutes.
Step 5
Pour the mixture into a large baking dish and bake on the bottom shelf for up to 1 hour, until all the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is soft.
Step 6
Turn off the oven and, with the door slightly open, leave the bake to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
