Rice Pilaf


Rice Pilaf

                Ingredients                  Yield: 4-6 servings
  • 30ml (2Tbsp)      Canola Oil
  • 50g (1 small)      Onion, fine dice
  • 25g (1/2 stalk)   Celery, fine dice
  • 25g (1/2 carrot) Carrot, fine dice
  • 1 clove               Garlic, fine dice
  • 250g (1 1/4c)     Long Grain Rice
  • 500ml (2c)         Stock (chicken, beef, or vegetable)
  • 2                       Bay Leaf
                Instructions
  1. Add oil to a pan on medium heat and saute onions, celery, and carrots. (Oven should be preheated to 350 degrees Fahrenheit)
  2. Wash rice under cold water until the water runs clear. (Best to use a strainer of sieve for this).
  3. Add garlic the the pan and sweat for a couple of more minutes.
  4. Add in washed rice and coat in the fat. Should turn from a translucent colour to more of an opaque/white colour.
  5. Pour in stock in stock and add bay leaves.
  6. Turn up to high heat and bring to a boil. Also add a couple of pinches of salt since it is easier to season rice while it is cooking than after it has cooked.
  7. Once at a boil, cover with a lid and throw in the preheated 350 degree Fahrenheit oven for 20-30 minutes.
  8. Once cooked, remove from the oven, fluff with a fork, remove bay leaves and serve!
