PÂTÉ AU SAUMON À L’ANETH SUR UNE CROÛTE DE RIZ

CONSEIL : La recette peut aussi être préparée avec un restant de saumon cuit, un restant de thon cuit ou en boîte, ou de la chair de crabe.

• 2 1/2 tasses (625 ml) de riz cuit refroidi
• 6 œufs
• Aérosol de cuisson
• 2 c. à thé (10 ml) huile
• 2/3 tasse (150 ml) d’oignon coupé en dés
• 1/2 tasse (125 ml) céleri coupé en dés
• 2/3 tasse (150 ml) de lait écrémé évaporé sans gras
• 1 c. à table (15 ml) d’aneth ou de persil frais haché (ou 1 c. à thé / 5 ml d’aneth ou persil séché)

Brasser le riz et un œuf battu. Vaporiser un moule à tarte de 9 po (23 cm) avec l’aérosol de cuisson. Garnir le fond et les bords du moule à tarte avec le mélange de riz. Faire chauffer l’huile dans une poêle à frire antiadhésive. Faire revenir l’oignon et le céleri en remuant à l’occasion, jusqu’à ce qu’ils soient tendres, environ 5 minutes.

Étendre sur la croûte de riz. Garnir du restant de fromage.
