Three-Grain Pilaf

Simple but a bit more textured than rice pilaf thanks to the addition of millet and quinoa.

Yield: 4-6 servings

Time: 45 minutes

Tools

  • medium stovetop-to-oven casserole, with lid
  • wooden spoon
  • fork

Ingredients

  • 2 T olive oil
  • ½ c green onions, sliced
  • 1 c white basmati or jasmine rice
  • ½ c millet
  • ½ c quinoa
  • 3 c vegetable stock or water
  • ¾ t salt

Directions

Preheat oven to 350.

Heat oil, add onions, and sauté for 2-3 minutes. Add grains and sauté, stirring frequently, a few more minutes until fragrant. Add stock and salt and bring to a boil.

Cover, transfer to oven, and bake for 30 minutes.

Remove from oven and let sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff up the grains with the fork.

Serve with something saucy and flavorful, such as barbecued tofu or cashew seitan.
