Step 1 of 6
Presh me Oriz (Albanian Leek and Rice Bake)
Fry the leeks in a small dash of olive oil 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 lamb mince and continue frying until everything is browned, stirring frequently.
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 tray. Place on the bottom shelf of a preheated oven at 180C and bake for up to 1 hour, until all the liquid is evaporated 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.
