This recipe is not your typical burger dish.  The curry,
ginger, peanut butter, honey and raisins give it a nice
twist.  It's certainly different and very yummy!


1-1/2 pounds (675 g) ground beef
1 medium onion, sliced
1 cup (240 ml) uncooked regular rice
2-1/2 cups (600 ml) water
2 teaspoons (10 ml) instant chicken bouillon
1 teaspoon (5 ml) curry powder
1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) salt
1/4 teaspoon (1.25 ml) ginger
1/4 teaspoon (1.25 ml) cinnamon
3 T (45 ml) chunky peanut butter
1 T (15 ml) honey
1/2 cup (120 ml) raisins

Cook and stir meat and onion in large skillet until onion is
tender.  Drain off fat.  Stir in remaining ingredients.

TO COOK IN SKILLET:  Heat mixture to boiling.  Reduce heat;
cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until rice is
tender, about 35 minutes.  (More water can be added if
necessary - watch carefully, I added about 1 cup / 240 ml
more.)

TO COOK IN OVEN: Turn mixture into ungreased 2-quart
(2-liter) casserole.  Cover and bake in 350 F (180 C) oven,
stirring occasionally, until rice is tender, 50 to 60
minutes.  (Add more water if necessary.)

Makes 8 1-cup (240-ml) servings.
