Number of Servings: 6

Ingredients

    1 tbsp Canola Oil
    1/2-1 Tb butter, opt (not calculated)
    1 Lb Mushrooms, sliced (not too thin)
    1 medium Onion, diced
    3 green onions, sliced
    1 cup Basmati white rice
    1 serving Mushroom Bouillon Cube (Aurora brand), mixed with 1 and 1/2 c hot water, cooled
    OR 1 and 1/2 c low salt veggie broth


Tips

May add chick peas, shredded spinach or peas etc as desired. Also may choose to brown mushrooms in butter rather than oil. Use your favorite rice and more mushrooms if desired. Campbell's No-salt added veggie broth is a good choice for lower sodium.


Directions

Heat pot (or IP on saute). Melt 1/2 Tb butter if using or add HALF of the oil. Add mushrooms and cook till very nicely browned. Don't turn too much at the beginning. Remove from pot.
Add remaining oil and onion and saute till light golden.
Add rice and 1/4 c broth. Quickly stir to mix flavours and deglaze the pot. Once that liquid is cooked off, stir in the remaining broth, cover and cook as directed.
Stove-top; low 25 minutes, add mushrooms back with green onions, fluff and let stand up to 5 minutes off the heat.
Instant pot; pressure cook for 3 minutes and let pressure release naturally, or minimum 10 minutes, then add mushrooms back with green onions and fluff.
