Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1-1/2 cups chicken stock or vegetable stock
  • 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
  • 1/2 cup wild rice, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup long-grain rice
  • 1/2 sweet red pepper or sweet yellow pepper, diced
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Preparation

In large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat; cook garlic, onion, thyme and pepper, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add stock, 1-1/4 cups (300 mL) water and vinegar; bring to boil.

Add wild rice to saucepan and retum to boil; reduce heat, cover and simmer for 35 minutes. Stir in long-grain rice; cover and simmer for about 30 minutes or until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. With fork, stir in red pepper and salt ; cover and let stand for 5 minutes.

Additional information :

Tip: While rice is cooking, do not stir it unless specifically stated in the recipe because the grain's starch will be released and make the rice sticky.
