Mushroom Rice Pilaf
This is the easiest mushroom rice pilaf recipe you can make! The taste and texture of the pilaf will be just perfect, without worrying you'll end up burning the rice.
Ingredients
- 1 cup rice soaked in water for at least 1 hour
- 2 cups button mushrooms sliced
- 1 onion large, chopped
- 1 Tbsp oil
- 2 ½ cups water
- salt to taste
- ⅓ tsp ground pepper
Instructions
- Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Sauté chopped onion and sliced mushrooms for 5 minutes.

Notes
* This is the failproof method I use for making rice pilafs. Boil it for just 20 minutes and then cover with a lid and remove from heat. The rice will absorb all liquid and you won't risk burning the pilaf.
