Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 1/2 cups brown rice

2 tablespoons light olive oil

16 ounces frozen mixed vegetables -- thawed

4 scallions -- minced, up to 5

Soy sauce -- to taste

Freshly ground pepper -- to taste

 

A simple reproduction of Chinese restaurant favorite, this is excellent

served with tofu dishes.

 

1. Bring 4 cups water to simmer in a medium saucepan. Stir in the rice,

cover, and simmer gently until the water is absorbed, about 35 minutes.

 

2. When the rice is nearly done, heat the oil in a stir-fry pan or

extra-wide skillet. Add the vegetables and stir-fry over medium-high heat

for 5 minutes. Add the scallions and stir-fry for another minute or two.

 

3. Stir In the rice, and season to taste with soy sauce and

pepper. Stir-fry for another 2 to 3 minutes, and serve.

 

Variation: To make a quick version of this, use quick-cooking brown

rice. Follow package directions for a 6-serving portion.
