WILD RICE AND MUSHROOM PILAF



Wild Rice and Mushroom Pilaf image

A delicious alternative to serving plain rice. This recipe is from the local grocery store with a few modifications. This recipe is made with fresh mushrooms, not canned or jarred.

Provided by ChezNicolette

Categories     Rice

Time 50m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup uncooked wild rice
3/4 cup uncooked brown rice (not instant)
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans beef broth
1 1/2 cups sliced cremini mushrooms
1 1/2 cups sliced shiitake mushroom caps
2 medium shallots, chopped
5 chopped garlic cloves
3 tablespoons butter
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Combine wild rice, brown rice, and beef broth in a 3-quart sauce pan. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to Low. Cover and simmer 50-55 minutes until rice is tender.
  • Meanwhile, slice mushrooms. Chop shallot. Chop (or crush) garlic.
  • Melt butter in a large skillet over Medium heat. Saute shallots 3 minutes. Stir in garlic; add mushrooms, salt and pepper. Saute 4 minutes or until mushrooms are dark and tender.
  • When rice is finished cooking, toss mushroom mixture with rice and serve while hot.
  • Special note: The recipe originally says to drain the rice. I've never had any extra liquid to drain, but I use a different rice as well. To make the recipe easier for me I bought a rice mixture at my store called "Royal Blend". I highly recommend it since it contains Texmati white, brown, wild, and red rice. This might be the reason no draining is necessary. If you are able to find this rice and buy it, use 1 1/2 cups of it instead of the 3/4 cup of both rice.

WILD RICE, ALMOND AND MUSHROOM STUFFING (OR PILAF)



Wild Rice, Almond and Mushroom Stuffing (Or Pilaf) image

Stashing this gem to use on the side of our Christmas smoked turkey. It may also grace the New Year's table alongside the collards & black-eyed peas & roasted pork shoulder. Found in The New York Times by Martha Rose Shulman - the recipe indicates this makes enough to stuff a 14 - 18 pound turkey, hence my guess at 10 - 14 servings. This pilaf can be made a day or two ahead and kept in the refrigerator to reheat before serving. Nice as it is easily made vegetarian by using vegetable stock.

Time 1h25m

Yield 10-14 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 quarts chicken stock (turkey stock & vegetable stock fine too)
2 cups wild rice
salt, to taste
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 large onion, chopped (4 shallots fine too)
4 garlic cloves, minced
3/4 lb mushroom, trimmed and sliced
1 cup celery, chopped
1/3 cup almonds, toasted, coarsely chopped
1/3 cup dry sherry
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves (1 teaspoon dried thyme fine too)
1/2 cup flat leaf parsley, chopped
1 -2 tablespoon sage, chopped fresh (to taste)
black pepper, freshly ground, to taste

Steps:

  • Bring the stock to a boil in a large saucepan or stock pot, and add the wild rice and salt to taste. When the liquid returns to the boil, lower the heat, cover and simmer 40 minutes, until the rice is tender and has begun to splay. Drain through a strainer, and set aside.
  • Heat the oil over medium heat in a large nonstick skillet, and add the onion or shallots. Cook, stirring often, until tender, about five minutes for onions or three minutes for shallots. Add a generous pinch of salt and the garlic. Cook until fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute, and add the mushrooms and the celery. Cook, stirring, until the mushrooms have softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in the rice and the remaining ingredients. Cook, stirring, until the sherry has evaporated. Taste and adjust seasonings.
  • Remove from the heat, and allow to cool before stuffing your turkey, or place in an oiled baking dish and cover. Warm for 20 to 30 minutes in a 350-degree oven.

This recipe uses either jasmine rice (original to recipe) or basmati rice. Adapted from 'The Lavender Cookbook'. If you are new to lavender and/or are a wee bit concerned about the amount in this recipe, start off by adding one half tablespoon (or less even) then you can always add more later.

Provided by COOKGIRl

Categories     Rice

Time 35m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon dried culinary lavender ('Provence' is preferred)
2 teaspoons mustard seeds (yellow or black mustard seeds not specified. I tried one teaspoon of each.)
1/2 teaspoon fennel seed
2 tablespoons olive oil (I tested 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon coconut oil)
1/4 lb mushroom, diced small (one variety or a mixture of mushrooms)
1 cup jasmine rice (rinsed under cold water in a fine mesh strainer then set aside to drain) or 1 cup basmati rice (rinsed under cold water in a fine mesh strainer then set aside to drain)
1/2 cup shallot, peeled and diced
1/4 lb mushroom, diced small (one variety or a mixture of mushrooms)
1/2 teaspoon sea salt, to taste
1/4 teaspoon cracked black pepper
2 cups vegetables broth (or chicken broth)
1/2 cup green onion
fresh cilantro, for garnish

Steps:

  • Place the lavender, mustard seeds and fennel seeds in a spice grinder. PULSE until finely ground.
  • Warm the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Stir in the rice and shallots; saute for 5 minutes.
  • Add the mushrooms, sauteeing for about 5 minutes or until golden brown and the liquid from the mushrooms has started to evaporate.
  • Stir in the salt, pepper and lavender mixture.
  • If using a rice cooker, transfer the rice mixture to the appliance. Stir in the broth. Cook for 30 minutes or until the rice is tender and the the liquid has completely absorbed.
  • If using the stove top, stir in the broth, cover the pot, bring to the boil, then reduce to simmer and cook for about 20 minutes or until the liquid has evaporated.
  • Stir in half of the green onions.
  • Transfer the cooked rice to a serving platter and garnish with the remaining green onions. If desired, you can garnish the top of the rice with fresh cilantro, too.
  • Remember: Cooking time varies depending on if you are cooking the rice on the stove top or in a rice cooker.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of mushrooms. This will add depth of flavor and texture to your pilaf. Some good choices include cremini, shiitake, oyster, and porcini mushrooms.
  • Sauté the mushrooms before adding them to the rice. This will help to brown them and bring out their flavor.
  • Use a good quality rice. A long-grain rice, such as basmati or jasmine, will work best for this recipe.
  • Cook the rice according to the package directions. Be sure to rinse the rice before cooking to remove any excess starch.
  • Add vegetables and herbs to taste. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, garlic, parsley, and thyme.
  • Serve the pilaf hot. It can be enjoyed as a main course or a side dish.
