Ingredients
- 2 Cups wild rice
- 4 Cups vegetable stock
- 1/4 Cup white wine
- 1 small onion roughly chopped
- 3 Cups button mushrooms sliced
- 1/2 Cup dried cranberries roughly chopped
- 1/4 Cup pine nuts toasted
- 1 Teaspoon dried rosemary
- Small bunch fresh chopped parsley
- 2 Tablespoons butter
Instructions
- In a large skillet set over high heat, add the butter until melted. Add the onions and give a good toss. Cook for about 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the mushrooms and give a good stir. After about 2 minutes, when the mushrooms start to brown, add the wine. Stir to incorporate.
- When the wine has evaporated, 2-3 more minutes, add the rice and stir well. Fry the rice for just about a minute. Add all the stock at once and the dried rosemary. Stir well, reduce heat to medium low and cover. Cook for about 15 minutes, until the rice is tender and all the stock has evaporated.
- Fluff up the rice. Add the dried cranberries, pine nuts and parsley. Give a good stir. Ready to serve.
