2 Tbs (30 ml) vegetable oil
1/4 lb (125 g) ground pork or beef
1 tsp (5 ml) cayenne pepper, or to taste
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 tsp (5 ml) paprika
1 tsp (5 ml) dry mustard
1/2 tsp (2 ml) ground cumin
1/2 tsp (2 ml) dried thyme
1/2 tsp (2 ml) dried marjoram
1 Tbs (15 ml) finely chopped garlic
1/2 cup (250 ml) each finely chopped onions,
green and/or red bell pepper, and celery
3 cups (750 ml) beef or chicken stock
1 1/2 cup (375 ml) uncooked white rice
Cook the meat in the vegetable oil in a large skillet over high heat
for about 5 minutes, until thoroughly browned. Stir in the seasonings
and the onion, peppers, and celery. Reduce the heat to a moderate
flame and cook, stirring frequently, for about 10 minutes. Add the
stock and stir, being careful to scrape all the brown bits off the
bottom of the skillet. Add the rice and stir thoroughly. Cover and
