Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup finely chopped fennel bulb
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup brown rice
2 cups chicken or vegetable stock or water
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups thin asparagus cut in 1-inch pieces
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a heavy two- to three-quart saucepan. Add fennel, onion and garlic and cook very slowly until vegetables are tender and translucent. Stir in rice and cook, stirring, another two to three minutes.
  • Add the stock or water, bring to a boil and cook uncovered for three minutes. Lower the heat, season the stock to taste with salt and pepper. Simmer covered about 40 minutes, until the liquid is absorbed.
  • Gently stir in the asparagus, cover the saucepan and set aside for 15 minutes before serving. Serve with a dusting of Parmesan cheese on top.

I didn't have any fennel, so I used celery instead. It turned out great!

This dish was too salty for my taste. I would use less salt next time.

I'm not usually a fan of fennel, but it was surprisingly delicious in this recipe. The asparagus was also perfectly cooked, still slightly crunchy.
