| Prepare White Rice. In a frying pan heat oil, add steak cubes, onion, celery salt and pepper. Saute until juices stick to pan and turn brown ( not burned! ). Put steaming hot rice into a mixing bowl and add the steak mixture and parsley. Mix well. Oil a mold, ring or a bunt cake pan. Stuff the mold with the rice mixture, packing down well. Place a round tray or a very flat plate over the mold. The tray should be bigger than the mold, but not by much. Let stand covered for 5 minutes. Add water, wine and mushrooms to frying pan. Simmer on a low flame until mushrooms turn a light brown. Remove mushrooms and place in the middle of the ring or mold. Mix flour in 1/2 C water with a fork until there are no lumps. Add to juices frying pan. Scrape bottome of pan well. Cook until thick ( about 3 or 4 minutes ). Add a little slat if needed. Strain gravy through a sieve into a plastic container or bowl. Pour around mold or ring forming a 'mote'. Pour a little onto the mushrooms in the middle and serve. |
