Categories     Brown Rice

Time 1h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 medium onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, minced
2 medium green bell peppers, minced
3 cups mushrooms, minced
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 teaspoons vegetable oil
2 cups veggie burgers (or other meatless burgers)
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup fresh parsley, minced
4 cups cooked brown rice
2 teaspoons file powder
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon cayenne

Steps:

  • In a dry skillet, brown the flour, stirring constantly, until light brown in color (patience pays off in flavor later).
  • In a separate skillet, saute the onion, celery and bell pepper, in 3 tablespoons of oil for 10 minutes, stirring constantly. Add to the flour and mix well.
  • Brown the mushrooms in 3 teaspoons of oil. Add the veggie burger crumbles and brown well with the mushrooms for 10 minutes. Add to the onion and flour mixture and saute for another 10 minutes. Add the water and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring often. The mixture should be fairly thick. Add the remaining ingredients, mix well.
  • Serve with hot Tabasco hot sauce.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will give your dirty rice a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include: bell peppers, onions, celery, carrots, and corn.
  • Cook the vegetables until they are softened but still have a little bit of crunch. This will give them the best flavor and texture.
  • Use a good quality rice. This will make a big difference in the overall flavor of your dish. I recommend using a long-grain rice, such as basmati or jasmine.
  • Don't be afraid to add some spice. Cayenne pepper or chili powder can give your dirty rice a nice kick. Just be sure to add it to taste so that you don't overwhelm the other flavors.
  • Serve your dirty rice with your favorite toppings. Some good options include: fried eggs, sliced avocado, sour cream, and salsa.

Conclusion:

Dirty rice is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover rice. With its bold flavors and hearty texture, dirty rice is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
