Wild Rice Stuffing/Side Dish
- 5 -6 tablespoons butter
- 12 red onion, chopped
- 1 cup raisins, soaked in brandy for 20 minutes
- 1 cup shelled pistachio nut, dry roasted
- 2 cups wild rice, uncooked
- good quality salt
- Cook wild rice according to package directions.
- This is usually cooked 1 part rice to 4 parts water and simmered for about 45 minutes.
- Once cooked, drain rice and set aside.
- (This can be made ahead of time).
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt butter.
- Add onion and cook until fragrant.
- Drain your raisins and add to the onions, along with the pistachios and wild rice.
- Cook for 10 minutes or until everything is nicely warmed and coated.
- Taste and add additional butter or salt to taste.
- I find that the flavors of this dish are very subtle, and once rested, the flavors develop even more.
- This can easily be reheated.
