Mushroom and Brown Basmati Rice Pilaf image

Ingredients Chestnut Mushrooms (sliced)(full pack) 1 onion (sliced) 2 garlic cloves (crushed) Olive oil (I would use a mix of the normal stuff and the extra virgin stuff) 180g Brown Basmati Rice 450ml Vegetable Stock 4 Cardomon pods (lightly bruised ;-) Directions Heat oil (about 2 tablespoons) and chuck in the garlic, mushrooms and onions. Cook for 5 mins then add the rice, stock and Cardomon pods Give it all a good stir - stick the lid on and cook it for about 25 minutes on a low heat (check it after about 15 - 20 minutes to make sure there is still liquid in it so it doesn't burn - if it has dried out just stick a bit of hot water in)

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 0

Steps:

  • Heat oil (about 2 tablespoons) and chuck in the garlic, mushrooms and onions. Cook for 5 mins then add the rice, stock and Cardomon pods
  • Give it all a good stir - stick the lid on and cook it for about 25 minutes on a low heat (check it after about 15 - 20 minutes to make sure there is still liquid in it so it doesn't burn - if it has dried out just stick a bit of hot water in)

Tips:

  • Use a sturdy pot: A heavy-bottomed pot will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the rice from sticking.
  • Rinse the rice: Rinsing the rice before cooking will help to remove any excess starch and prevent the rice from becoming gummy.
  • Use the right amount of water: The ratio of water to rice is very important. For this recipe, you will need 2 cups of water for every 1 cup of rice.
  • Bring the water to a boil: Before adding the rice, bring the water to a boil. This will help to prevent the rice from becoming mushy.
  • Simmer the rice: Once the water has come to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer the rice for 18-20 minutes, or until all of the water has been absorbed.
  • Fluff the rice: Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork to separate the grains.
  • Add the mushrooms and vegetables: While the rice is cooking, sauté the mushrooms and vegetables in a separate pan. Once the rice is cooked, add the mushrooms and vegetables to the pot and stir to combine.
  • Season the rice: Season the rice to taste with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings.

Conclusion:

Brown rice and mushroom pilaf is a delicious and healthy dish that can be enjoyed as a main course or a side dish.
