Mushroom And Asparagus Pilaf Preparation
Made this a few weeks ago – and since it”s the season for asparagus – I thought I”d pass it on. It”s from 1001 Low-Fat Vegetarian Recipes by Sue Spitler. 1. Heat 2 cups stock to boiling; pour over mushrooms in bowl and let stand until mushroom are softened, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain, reserving stock. Slice mushrooms, discarding tough stems. 2. Spray a large skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium heat until hot. Saute mushrooms, onions, garlic, and herbs until onions are tender, about 5 minutes. Add asparagus; saute 5 minutes more. 3. Add sherry, reserved stock from mushrooms, and remaining 1 1/3 cups stock to skillet; heat to boiling. Stir in tabbouleh (discard spice packet***). Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until stock is absorbed and tabbouleh is tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in red pepper sauce; season to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon into serving bowl; sprinkle with green onions. 6 Servings (about 1 1/2 cups each) Note: The dried Chinese black or shiitake mushrooms impart a hearty, woodsy flavor to this pilaf. The mushrooms are available in a large supermarket or oriental grocery. ***I used the spice packet from the mix and omitted the salt and pepper. Also – needed more liquid than the recipe called for.
