Wild Rice With Mushrooms And Onions

Cooking Instructions

In a 3-quart heavy-lidded saucepan bring 6 cups of water to a boil. Add the salt and the wild rice. Cover and simmer over low heat for 30 minutes. Add the converted rice to the pot without stirring. Cover and continue cooking another 15 minutes. Do not remove the lid. Let the rice sit for 5 minutes after finishing the cooking.

In the meantime, saute the onion in the butter or oil. When the onion becomes clear, add the mushrooms and saute for 5 or 6 minutes.

When the rice is finished, stir in the mushrooms, onions, and black pepper.

Correct the seasoning. Serve hot.
