wouldn't rice cooked in a rice cooker be sticky enough to hold together? I think a wild rice mix

Ang, I am thinking the rice would be sticky enough to hold. Can't do wild rice....too much potassium

Thanks for the suggestion Marilyn.

Never tried this, but here's an italian version of rice pie

It has both concepts...either cook the rice with everything...or at the end of the recipe, he suggests cooking the rice al dente, then adding it to finish off the dish.

I also think you'd have more moisture with grated potatoes, so you may need to adjust for the lack of that.

Sylvia...practice saying this with a straight face: "Lovely color, isn't it. It's a new sepia hybrid

with hints of ochre and overtones of russet. I was lucky to get a few for you to sample."

Marilyn, LOL! This dish won't be making it another dinner party menu. I like to prepare dishes I can

make in advance.

Flavour was fine. I was disappointed because I had grated and organized the custard cups

about 2 hours before dinner and the potatoes had discoloured. Sigh! The potatoes should be grated just before baking.
