Title: Baked rice #5
 Categories: Rice
      Yield: 4 Servings
 
      2 c  Converted rice
      4 c  Water
      1    Stick margarine (less can
           -be used)
      1 pk Onion soup mix (less can be
           -used)
      8 oz Or larger can mushroom stems
           -and pieces (this is
           -optional)
 
  This is my faithful large crowd rice
  recipe - I made it last week for the Pidun Haben of our Rabbi's
  grandson (for 150 people - they invited the whole shul) and it took
  about 10 minutes to set up (I went home changed clothing ran an
  errand and came back and it was perfect).
  
  BTW does anyone know why garlic cloves (raw) and sugar cubes are
  handed out at a Pidun Haben?
  
  I allow 1 cup of  raw rice for 10 people if there are alot of other
  side dishes being served or 1 cup raw if few sides dishes served.
  
  Place all ingredients into 9 by 13 pan (I use deep disposables) cover
  very well with foil.  Bake for aprox 45 minutes.  This recipe
  multiplies well and I was able to put 3 cup of raw rice (and the
  appropriate proportions of other ingredients into a deep disposable
  pan.
