Recipe - Chestnut And Rice Savoury

1 small Onion
1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
1 small Tomato
1 cup Mushrooms
One half cup Brown rice, cooked
2 ounce Dried chestnuts
2 tablespoon Water
1 teaspoon Yeast extract
1 teaspoon Tomato paste

Cover the chestnuts with boiling water and leave them to soak for several
hours, then cook them until tender. (If the chestnuts are soaked in warm
water in a widerimmed thermos flask, or in a warm cupboard, them may be
tender enough not to require more cooking.)

Chop the onion and saute it in the oil in a saucepan for about 3 minutes.

Skin and chop the tomato. Slice the mushrooms. Add them to the pan and
cook for a further 3 minutes or so.

Add the rice and chestnuts to the pan and stir well. Then add the water,
yeast extract and tomato paste. Mix together very thoroughly as it heats up
so that the yeast extract is amalgamated evenly into the mixture. Continue
cooking over a gentle heat until all the ingredients are well heated.
