This is a simple side-dish devised by a former girl friend about 20 years ago. Ingredients:
4 tablespoons butter or 4 tablespoons margarine |
3/4 cup diced onion |
1 cup uncooked brown rice |
2 cups chicken stock or 2 cups water |
salt & freshly ground black pepper |
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh spinach |
Directions:
1. Heat butter in saucepan over medium-high heat until just beginning to sizzle.
2. Add onion, and saute until softened.
3. Add rice and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until rice is lightly browned in places and beginning to get translucent.
4. Remove from heat, and gradually stir in chicken stock or water.
5. Season to taste with salt and pepper, return to heat, and bring to a boil.
6. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 40 minutes.
7. Add spinach, stir thoroughly and continue cooking for another 10 minutes or until all liquid is absorbed.
8. Serve hot.
