Categories     side-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup wild rice blend (usually a combination of wild rice, black rice, brown rice and white rice)
1 3/4 cups vegetable broth, chicken broth or water
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 medium yellow or white onion, finely diced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 pound mixed mushrooms, such as shiitakes, button and cremini (baby bella), trimmed and sliced
Kosher salt
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary leaves, plus a sprig for garnish

Steps:

  • Combine the rice and broth in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, cover the pan, and simmer for 45 minutes. Turn the heat off and let the rice steam for another 10 minutes. Cool to room temperature.
  • While the rice cools, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once it shimmers, add the onions and garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onion is translucent, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook until the mushrooms are browned and soft and the liquid they release has evaporated, 7 to 10 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt.
  • Gently mix the mushrooms and chopped rosemary into the cooled rice. Add salt to taste. Just before serving, garnish the rice with a drizzle of good olive oil and a sprig of fresh rosemary.

EGGPLANT WITH MUSHROOM STUFFING



Eggplant With Mushroom Stuffing image

Quite easy for an intermediate chef like me! I added 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning to it (instead of parsley) and 3 cloves of minced garlic. I increased the breadcrumbs slightly because the eggplant was large. It was very tasty and my husband loved it!

Time 1h20m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 small eggplant
1 tablespoon salt
¼ cup butter, cubed
1 small onion, chopped
¾ cup soft bread crumbs
½ cup chopped fresh mushrooms
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 pinch ground black pepper
½ cup shredded Swiss cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8x8-inch square baking dish.

  • Add a splash of white wine or vegetable broth to the pan to deglaze it and add flavor.
  • Stir in some fresh herbs, such as basil or parsley, at the end of cooking for a pop of flavor.
  • Serve the eggplant and mushrooms over wild rice or your favorite grain.
