Ingredients
Quantity | Ingredient | |
---|---|---|
1 | cup | Brown basmati rice |
1¾ | cup | Water |
¼ | teaspoon | Sea salt |
1 | tablespoon | Olive oil (may be doubled) |
1 | medium | Onion; chopped |
½ | cup | Chopped celery |
1 | Garlic clove; minced | |
½ | cup | Small walnut pieces |
2½ | tablespoon | Chopped fresh rosemary |
1 | tablespoon | Tamari or shoyu |
Directions
Wash and drain the rice and place it in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Let the rice dry out somewhat and begin to toast lightly, then add the water and salt. Bring to the boil, boil for 1 minute, then cover and cook over low heat without stirring for 40 minutes. Let the rice rest for 10 minutes before removing the lid. Fluff the rice with a rice paddle or fork.
While the rice is cooking, heat the oil in a skillet and add the onion, celery, and garlic. Saute for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the walnuts and rosemary and saute about 5 minutes longer. Add the tamari or shoyu and mix well. Combine the sauteed mixture with the rice.
Serve immediately or reheat in a casserole.
Variation: Add ½ cup sliced mushrooms along with the walnuts.
