Ingredients:

• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon white pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 cup fresh mushrooms, sliced
• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 1 cup converted white rice
• 2 tablespoons fresh ginger, minced
• 2 cups heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated

Instructions:

1. Prepare Seasoning Mix:
   Combine the salt, garlic powder, ground ginger, onion powder, white pepper, and cayenne in a small bowl. Set aside.

2. Preheat Oven:
   Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

3. Sauté Vegetables:
   In a large ovenproof skillet, preferably with a tight-fitting lid, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms, chopped onions, and prepared seasoning mix. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 6 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

4. Add Rice and Ginger:
   Stir in the converted white rice and minced fresh ginger until well combined with the vegetables.

5. Mix in Cream and Cheese:
   Pour in 2 cups of heavy cream and add the grated Parmesan cheese to the skillet. Stir everything together until evenly distributed.

6. Bake:
   Cover the skillet with its lid or aluminum foil and transfer it to the preheated oven. Bake for 45 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together and the rice to cook through.

7. Check Consistency:
   After baking, remove the skillet from the oven and check if there’s still some liquid in the bottom of the pan. If needed, pour in the remaining cup of heavy cream.

8. Let Sit:
   Allow the dish to sit, covered, for about 10 minutes to allow the liquid to be absorbed and the flavors to intensify.

9. Serve:
   Spoon the Gingered Cream Rice onto serving plates and enjoy the creamy, aromatic goodness!
