Walnut and Rice Loaf With Chive Sauce image

This loaf is a tasty and filling dinner. Another recipe from Charmaine Solomon's Complete Vegetarian Cookbook. The carrot, scallions & mushrooms smell fantastic while cooking in the skillet! You will need 2 1/2 cups of cooked brown rice.We would suggest making the loaf a day before & leaving it to cool in the tin over-night in the fridge; we served it directly from the oven & it crumbled when cut. We added a tblsp of light thickened cream to the sauce & preffered it like this.
