Rice Cooker Pasta And Kielbasa Sausage
The rice cooker is a marvel of technology. Yes, it cooks perfect rice, but, with a little imagination, you can also use it to cook just about anything else you can think of. This is a recipe that I adapted to make in the rice cooker. Before, you had to use three cooking utensils to make this dish. You had a pot for the pasta, a pot with a steamer for the broccoli, and a saute pan for the sausage. The rice cooker is ONE pot.
I use the Wolfgang Puck rice cooker (s). I have three and absolutely love them. They come with the steamer inserts. You can get one at HSN. They sell out of these sometimes, but they always get them back in stock. They usually have different sizes. They come in 5 cup, 7 cup and 10 cup capacities. I have two 7 cups and one 10 cup and that covers most of what I need. Just be sure to check the capacity to make sure you get the size that's best for you.
Quick, hearty and easy are the words to describe this recipe.
8 Ounces Pasta
5.3 Ounces Beef Polish Kielbasa, Cut In 2" Pieces
2 Cups Broccoli Flowerettes
1 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream
1/2 CupWater
1 Put the pasta, water and heavy cream in the rice cooker and press the start button.
2 While the pasta is cooking, put the Kielbasa pieces in the steamer basket on top of the pasta.
3 Cook until the pasta is done. Time will vary according to pasta type. I usually use fettuccine, shells or penne.
4 Add the broccoli flowerettes to the sausage and steam for 2 more minutes or just until they turn bright green.
5 When the pasta is done, add the Kielbasa and broccoli to the pasta and toss to coat them with the cream.
