Oat Groats Pilaf

 

Ingredients:

2 tsp Olive Oil, divided

1 cup Oats, Whole Groats

1 medium Onion, chopped

1 cup sliced Mushrooms

1/4 tsp Pepper

Dash of Salt, to taste

2 Tbsp minced Fresh Parsley (I use cilantro)

2 medium Tomatoes, diced

2 cups Vegetable Broth

 

Heat 1 tsp of the oil in a heavy, medium saucepan and stir in the

oat groats. Cook the groats, stirring them for about 3 minutes to

toast them. Add the remaining olive oil and onion and sauté the

mixture for about 3 minutes, until the onion is soft. Add the

mushrooms and cook the mixture for another 3 minutes or until

mushrooms are soft. Add the broth, pepper and salt. Bring the mixture

to boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer the pilaf for about 40

minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the pilaf from the heat, stir

in parsley. Season with lemon juice, if desired. Garnish with

tomatoes and cilantro.
