Tasty Brown Rice Mushroom Risotto

Ingredients

• 2 cups brown rice


• 1-1/2 cups button mushrooms sliced


• 1-1/2 cups oyster mushrooms - either use fresh or dried, soaked mushrooms


• 1 large or 2 medium onions, sliced


• 1/2 tsp salt


• 1 cup vegetable broth


• 1/2 tsp olive oil or other cooking oil


• gomasio




Method




Wash and soak the brown rice in 3 cups water for 1 - 2 hours. If you don't have time, you can cook immediately but then it takes much longer to cook. Put the rice and water on the fire on a low flame in a covered pot that is larger than what the rice would require. Take off the lid temporarily if the water tends to boil over, and lower the flame. When the water is almost boiled away, lightly sautee the onions in the olive oil separately and add these, the mushrooms, a cup of vegetable broth and the salt to the rice. When the water becomes less stir and keep adding water till the rice is completely cooked. Add more salt if needed. The salt needs to be a little less to compensate for the saltiness of the gomasio and soy sauce.
Serve with gomasio (and soy sauce if desired).
