  1. Gonna be making some of this wonderful rice stew later in
    the day. While on my trip, was *shocked* to find a
    restaurant menu which indicated this would be served over
    egg noodles. What?! No, no, must be rice. In fact, rice is
    incorporated into this recipe.

    Sausage Jambalaya

    2 Tbs. olive oil 1-1/2 c. yellow onion, chopped
    1/2 c. green onion, chopped
    2/2 c. green pepper, chopped
    3/4 c. fresh parsley, chopped 1 c. tomato sauce 2 tsp.
    garlic, minced 1 c. dry white wine 1 1/2 c. long grain
    rice (uncooked) Tabasco sauce or ground cayenne pepper
    (to taste) Salt (to taste) 1 lb. smoked sausage, sliced
    thick In a large, deep skillet, heat oil over a medium-
    high heat and saute the onions, green onions, green
    pepper and parsley until the onions are clear. Stirring,
    add the tomato sauce, garlic and wine, then the rice,
    salt and pepper, smoke sausage and enough water to cover
    the rice by about 1 inch. Cook until most of the sauce is
    gone. Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for 1
    hour. Serves 6.

    Well, when you've seen what they have done to pizza,
    lasagna, bagels, and what I'm planning to do to knishes
    (evil laugh) don't be surprized to see jambalaya morph into
    something you wouldn't recognize.

    Sue(tm) Lead me not into temptation... I can find it myself!

    Several New Orleans restaurants offer a pasta jambalaya,
    including the Cafe Royale.

    What part of the world was this? Here in New England, I
    find jambalaya on the menu frequently where they think some
    sort of pasta goes in it and no rice. Blasphemy, that's
    what I call it.

    I screwed up the recipe. First of all, yes, 1/2 c. celery.
    Secondly, more garlic (like 2-3 cloves). Third, cut the
    'lowered heat' cooking time down to about 40-45 minutes.
    This is supposed to be moist and 1 hour is way too long.

    My apologies.

    <snip tasty-looking recipe>

    Yep. Rice, not noodles. Maybe in "Little D" they serve it
    over noodles, but here in Houston, restaurants know how to
    serve it properly (more of a Cajun presence here).
