Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1.5 cups white rice preferably basmati
- 2 tablespoons olive oil extra virgin
- 1 cup mushrooms sliced, white or cremini
- 1 medium onion finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 3 cups vegetable broth or water
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
- 2 tablespoons parsley fresh, chopped
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Drain and set aside.
- In a large saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent.
- Add the mushrooms and cook until they are lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the rice and cook for an additional 2 minutes, ensuring all grains are coated in oil.
- Add the vegetable broth, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, covering with a lid.
- Simmer for 15-18 minutes or until the rice is tender and all the liquid has been absorbed.
- Remove from heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
