I made a HUGE batch of bolognese (for lasagna, naturally) and now we’re working our way through the remaining sauce.

So far, I haven’t come up with anything too exciting, just the usual: homemade pasta, that sort of thing. Then I spotted our stone bowl in the cupboard, just begging to be used to crisp up some rice. I guess I had a moment of brilliance because, um, why not crispy rice topped with bolognese, cheese, and a runny egg?

Sometimes, when I was a kid and my mom made meat sauce and there was no pasta in the house – we’d have all sorts of Asian noodles of course – I’d scoop up a spoonful of sauce and eat it on rice. Pure comfort food. This reminds me of a better, grown up version.

  • If you’re serving it at the table, carefully bring the bowl to the table. Mix everything up, pushing the rice up the sides of the bowl. You should hear a bit of a sizzle. Let crisp for a couple of minutes. The mix of rice and cheese will form a crispy frico/socarrat. The longer you wait, the crispier it will get. Enjoy!

Notes

Feel free to use your favorite bolognese sauce and type of egg. I had some slow poached eggs in the fridge, so it worked out well for me, but a simple soft boiled egg or crispy sunny side up egg would work just as well.
