Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup brown rice
3 tablespoons wild rice
2 1/4 cups chicken stock or 2 1/4 cups water
2 -4 bay leaves
1/4 cup freeze dried shallots or 1/4 cup one large fresh shallot, finely minced
1 teaspoon butter
1/2 teaspoon salt, use if using water instead of chicken stock (optional)

Steps:

  • If using dry shallots, rehydrate by soaking in 2 tbsp water for 5 minutes.
  • In a 2 quart saucepan, sauté shallots in butter until lightly browned.
  • Add both types of rice, chicken stock (or water), salt (if using), and bay leaves.
  • Bring to a rapid boil, cover, and reduce to a simmer.
  • Simmer for 45 minutes and do not remove the cover until the 45 minutes have passed. Fluff with a fork.
  • If any liquid is left after 45 minutes, stir lightly, then continue to cook over low heat for about 5 more minutes, or until all water is gone.

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I followed the recipe exactly and the rice turned out mushy. I think I'll cook it for less time next time.

This recipe is a bit bland for my taste. I would add some more spices next time.
