WILD RICE AND MUSHROOM SALAD WITH DRIED FRUIT, GOAT CHEESE AND WALNUTS
Steps:
- To prepare the rice: Cook according to package directions and add the salt, bay leaf, and thyme. Simmer until tender. Drain the rice and remove the bay leaf and thyme; let cool. (This can be done 1 day ahead of time and refrigerated.) You should have 7 cups cooked rice. In a large skillet, heat the grapeseed or canola oil over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 6 minutes, or until lightly browned. Remove from heat, drain well, and set aside. To make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, shallots, fennel, cumin, thyme, and pepper and season with salt. Add the dried fruits. In a salad bowl, combine the cooled wild rice, cooked mushrooms, and walnuts. Toss with the vinaigrette and fruits. To serve, portion the salad onto a large platter, top with the greens, and sprinkle with the goat cheese.
