Was looking for a differant way to make wild rice for a side to go with a pork loin and so glad I found this. Loved the blend of flavors and the combination of white rice (I used jazmine) and wild rice. Didn't have scallons (can't believe I was out) or green peppers but the flavoring and directions given where spot on. This will be enjoyed often. -
Best use of wild rice I've come across. I'd suggest the following changes: Double or triple the scallions. Double or triple the green pepper. Make it a whole pound of mushrooms. Add a can of cream of mushroom soup. Add a can of coconut milk. Use olive oil instead of butter. One slight pinch more salt. Perhaps another half tablespoon curry powder. Keep everything else the same. -
This had a very nice flavor. I did omit the green pepper for my kid's sake and cut back on the curry powder to about 3 tsps. I'd make it again but probably add more white rice. Thanks.
