Brown Rice Pilaf

    Cuisine:

    used your recipe on Saturday with broiled salmon topped with a combo of hoisin sauce and honey. It was just delicious and I will certainly use it again. I do have one comment.I heated my oil and put in the fresh garlic and onions in the pot that I was going to cook everything in. I think when you wrote saute onions and garlic in a small pan then add all the other ingredients it would overflow. Anyway, since the garlic started to burn and the onions did not brown enough I sauteed the rice as directed and cooked til it was done. I also added a bunch of chopped parsley and it looked very pretty and it was still delicious. What I will do the next time is saute the onions first in a small pan until they get translucent and then add the fresh garlic. When the onions are browned I will transfer them to a larger pot saute the rice and then add the broth etc. I have browned onions and garlic several times and that seems to work for me. I do love this recipe and what I especially like is it comes out very moist like a risotto. Thank you Sandra
