Ingredients

  • 1/2 tablespoon pine nuts

  • 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil

  • 1 red onion, thinly sliced

  • 1 1/2 teaspoon turmeric

  • 250 grams brown mushrooms, sliced

  • 95 grams brown rice, rinsed

  • 1 teaspoon raisins

  • 300 ml organic vegetable stock

  • Juice from 1/2 lemon

  • 1 handful coriander, chopped

Method

  1. Preheat oven to gas mark 6.

  2. Toast the pine nuts in a dry frying pan, remove from heat, and set aside.

  3. Heat the olive oil in an ovenproof casserole dish, add the onion and turmeric, and fry for 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms, and fry for a further 2 minutes. Add the rice, raisins, and stock, and stir.

  4. Place in the oven. Cook for 45-55 minutes, checking if you need to add a little more water halfway through, until the rice is tender.
