Mixed Grain Mushroom Casserole
Ingredients:
1/2 cup wild rice
1/2 cup pearl barley (originally quinoa but you may not be able to locate it)
1/2 cup brown rice
1/4 cup oil
1 large onion; thinly sliced
4 garlic cloves; chopped
4 tablespoon oil
1/2 lb mushrooms; thickly sliced
3 1/2 cup vegetable broth
1 teaspoon crushed dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon crushed dried oregano
1 salt & pepper; to taste
Preparation:
Combine grains in a mixing bowl and set aside. Pour the oil into a 2-3 qt. casserole which is safe for both stovetop and oven cooking, and place on med. heat. When hot , saute onion and garlic until tender and translucent, about 5-6 mins. Add the mixed grains and saute for 1 min., stirring constantly.
Meanwhile melt butter or margarine (if using) in a separate pan on med. high heat. When hot , add mushrooms and saute quickly, stirring frequently, until the shrooms are hot and have just absorbed the "butter" (about 1 min.). Immediately remove from heat.
Add the broth, herbs, and mushrooms to the casserole with the onions and grains, and bring to a boil. Season with salt and pepper to taste, cover tightly (use aluminum foil between pot and cover if necessary for a good seal), and bake at 350 degrees F for 1 hr.
