The baked brown rice timbale is definitely a tasty dish that usually pleases the whole family. For this main course, I chose cooked ham and guanciale, which make it even more appetizing. Brown rice has a quite long cooking time, about 30 minutes, but it gives a more rustic flavor that we really like.
