Green Rice Cubes

• 6 ounces spinach, stemmed and finely chopped
• 3 12 cups water
• 2 cups long-grain white rice
• salt
• pepper, freshly ground to taste

2. Transfer to a blender or food processor and puree until smooth.
3. Set aside.
4. In large pan, combine water and rice.
5. Cover and bring to a boil.
6. Reduce heat and cook until the water is absorbed, about 25 minutes.
7. Mix in the spinach puree and simmer for 5 minutes.
8. Add salt and pepper.
9. Prepare a 10-inch square pan by oiling.
10. Spoon the hot rice into pan and press it into the pan firmly with a spoon.
11. Rinse the spoon with water as needed to prevent rice from sticking.
12. Allow rice to cool completely.
