This time-tested recipe is a natural outgrowth of raising our own beef and cooking for family of mostly men who love meat and gravy. Ingredients:
1-1/3 cups water, divided |
2 tablespoons uncooked wild rice |
1/3 cup uncooked long grain rice |
1/4 teaspoon vegetable oil |
1/2 teaspoon salt, divided |
1/4 pound ground beef |
2 tablespoons chopped onion |
1 tablespoon king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
3/4 teaspoon curry powder |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
1 cup milk |
optional toppings: toasted slivered almonds, minced fresh parsley, sliced green onions, chopped sweet red pepper and/or golden raisins |
Directions:
1. In a saucepan, combine 2/3 cup water and wild rice; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 40 minutes. Add the long grain rice, oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and remaining water; return to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 15 minutes longer. Remove from heat; let stand for 5 minutes longer.
2. Meanwhile, in a skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in the flour, curry powder, pepper and remaining salt until blended. Gradually add milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Serve over rice. Sprinkle with toppings if desired. Yield: 2 servings.
