Best Wild Rice Au Gratin Recipes

WILD RICE GRATIN

Steps:

• Beat the eggs well and season with salt and pepper. Stir in rice, cheese and parsley.
• Lightly saute the green onions, using both green and white parts, in a large skillet that has been sprayed with cooking spray.
• If using fresh spinach tear or coarsely chop the spinach leaves and stir them to the pan of green onions and toss just until a little wilted. Frozen spinach would only require a good squeeze to remove all the liquid- I use a ricer for this and it works great!
• Add the onions and spinach to the rice mixture and taste for seasoning, adding salt and pepper if needed.
• Spoon into an 8x8 or 9x9 pan that has been sprayed with cooking spray and sprinkle with bread crumbs if desired.
• Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until a little brown on top.
• Enjoy!

WILD RICE WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Bring 5 cups water to a boil. Stir in rice, then reduce heat so liquid is just simmering. Cover and cook until grains just begin to pop, about 40 minutes. Drain excess liquid from rice and set aside.
• Meanwhile, melt 4 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add half the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until they have released their liquid and are golden brown, about 8 minutes; remove to a plate. Repeat with remaining butter and mushrooms.
• Return all the mushrooms to the skillet and season with the salt and pepper, to taste. Very carefully add sherry to deglaze the pan, and cook until most of the liquid has evaporated but mushrooms are still moist.
• Mix mushrooms into prepared rice and season again with salt and pepper.
