Wild Rice Ingredients

Method

Wild Rice Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Rice

    Rinse wild rice under cold water. In a medium saucepan, combine wild rice, water or vegetable broth, and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat.

  2. 2

    Simmer the Rice

    Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for about 45-60 minutes, or until the rice is tender and has absorbed the liquid. Remove from heat and let sit covered for 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    While the rice is cooking, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion, minced garlic, and chopped celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes or until the onion is translucent.

  4. 4

    Add Mushrooms

    Add sliced mushrooms to the skillet and continue to sauté for another 5-7 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and browned.

  5. 5

    Combine and Serve

    Fluff the cooked wild rice with a fork and add it to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Stir to combine, season with freshly ground pepper and chopped parsley. Serve warm.
