Ingredients
- 1 pkg dried mushrooms, (porcini, morelle, chanterelle)
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 1 finely chopped leek, (white and light green parts only)
- 1 cup diced carrots
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1-1/3 cup brown basmati rice
- 2/3 cup wild rice

- 1-1/2 cup water

Soak mushrooms in 1 cup (250 mL) boiling water for 30 minutes. Strain through sieve; reserve 1/2 cup (125 mL) soaking liquid for gravy. Chop mushrooms.
In skillet, heat oil over medium heat; fry garlic, leek, carrots, thyme and mushrooms, stirring occasionally, until leeks are softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in basmati and wild rice, salt and pepper. Add stock and water, scraping up any brown bits from bottom of pan; bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, about 40 minutes. (Make-ahead: Cover and keep warm for up to 30 minutes.) Stir in parsley and red pepper.
