Orange Almond Cake with Fruit And Sparkling Wine
Alcoholic Drinks!
Instructions:
2 ts Olive oil
1 Shallot; minced
2 tb Slivered almonds
2 c Instant brown rice
1 1/2 c Water
3/4 c Fresh orange juice
1/4 ts Fresh orange zest
1/4 ts Salt
IDEA - Instant brown rice is convenient but lacks the deep, satisfying
nutty flavor of regular brown rice. Orange and almonds make a difference.
1) Heat the oil in a medium pan over medium heat. Add the shallot, stirring
often, until the shallot is translucent, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add the
almonds and stir 1 minutes. Stir in rice until combined.
2) Add water, orange juice, orange peel and salt and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat, cover and simmer 10 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed.
Let stand 1 to 2 minutes, then stir and serve.
