‘Doria’, a Japanese dish of Rice, is very versatile. The basic Doria can be made with Butter Rice OR Pilaff covered with White Sauce (Béchamel Sauce) and grated Cheese, and baked in the oven. You can season the Rice as you like, and add Vegetables, Meat, Chicken, Seafood, etc. Today I added store-bought Meatballs for quick and easy dish. I seasoned Rice with Salt & Pepper, but Tomato flavour OR Curry flavour are very nice.
