Ingredients
Savoury Roulades with Swiss Chard
Trim the Swiss chard, separate the leaves, rinse and blanch for 1-2 minutes in boiling salted water. Remove, rinse in cold water, cut out the tough stalks and place the chard leaves next to each other on a kitchen towel. Rinse the parsley, shake dry, pluck off the leaves and chop finely.
Bring the rice with 400 ml (approximately 1 3/4 cups) of water and a pinch of salt to a boil and cook over medium heat for 20-25 minutes. Chop the nuts coarsely and toast until golden in a dry pan. Mix the rice and nuts with the parsley and season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
Place 2 chard leaves next to each other so that they overlap halfway. Spread some of the rice mixture on the leaves, turn in the sides and roll up. Secure with kitchen string and heat for 5-7 minutes in a pan of hot vegetable stock. To serve, remove the roulades from the pan, remove the kitchen string, cut in half and arrange on plates.
