Instructions

    In a bowl, combine the cooled cooked rice, chopped fresh herbs, beaten egg, salt, and pepper, stirring until evenly moistened.

  3. 3

    Pat the rice mixture firmly and evenly over the base and up the sides of the prepared pie dish to form a thin, compact crust.

  4. 4

    Bake for 15 minutes, until the crust is set and lightly golden at the edges.

  5. 5

    Add your favorite quiche or pie filling and continue baking as your filling recipe directs. Serve warm or at room temperature.
