One of my favourite things is my
multigrain rice. But alas, the shop closed down, so I have been trying to figure out how to mix my own.
It contains the black rice, some medium grain white rice, green split peas, yellow split peas, red lentils and barley. The foremost one is the original multigrain rice.
I thought it looked nice in a jar, so I put a bit of braid around the top and gave it as a gift to a friend.
I love my multigrain rice because it is an excellent meat substitute, I have used it in nachos, lasagne, and vegie burgers.
Vegie Burgers
- Slow cook, either on the stove or in the microwave, 1/3 cup multigrain rice, let it cool.
- Saute some garlic and onion. (If you can't be bothered you don't need to do this step. Today I just added some dried garlic powder to the mix instead.)
- Mix rice, seasonings (salt, pepper, cumin, parsley, whatever else you feel like) with one egg and 1/3 cup of breadcrumbs. Today I also added frozen corn, because I had it, and I thought I could get away with it.
- Form into patties, coat with extra breadcrumbs and sit in the fridge for a while, or until you need them.
- Cook on a grill or bbq like a regular burger.

ReplyDeleteThanks for the link and the recipe...I'm going to give the vegie burgers a go!
ReplyDeleteThe rice looks so pretty. I'm not a vego, but meat's expensive so I'll give these a go.
