Recipe Introduction

from Vegetarian Times Magazine

List of Ingredients

2 Tblsp olive oil
1 small onion, chopped (1 cup)
1 small carrot, diced (1/4 cup)
1 stalk celery, diced (1/4 cup)
1 tsp herbes de provence (check recipe archive for myo)
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups cooked brown rice, crumbled
2 cups left over vegetables, beans, etc. (optional)


Recipe

1. Heat skillet over medium-high heat and add oil. Saute onion, carrot, celery, herbes de provence and salt 10 to 15 minutes, or until well browned. Add a little more oil if pan seems dry. Add rice and stir fry 5 minutes or until mixture is hot and well combined.

2. Rice is now ready to be served, but if you have some time before your meal, turn heat to low, add a little more oil to pan, and let rice sit undisturbed for 7 to 10 minutes, or until browned. If it begins to stick,
scrape it up, stir tasty brown bits in, and continue browning with a little more oil. The more time and energy you spend at this stage, the tastier the rice will be. If using leftovers, add them just before serving and continue to heat thoroughly.
