A hearty and flavorful pork and rice casserole, perfect for a comforting family dinner.
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated to maintain even cooking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked pork, uncooked rice, chopped onion, diced celery, sliced mushrooms, soy sauce, and water.
Mix thoroughly to ensure the flavors are evenly distributed.
Transfer the mixture into a casserole dish and cover it with aluminum foil.
Covering the dish helps retain moisture during baking.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
Check halfway through to ensure the rice is cooking evenly.
Remove the casserole from the oven, let it rest for 5 minutes, then serve warm.
Letting it rest allows the flavors to meld together.
