Brown Rice with Sesame Seeds image

I have been making this for years as a variation on the way my folks taught me how to make white rice.

Categories     Brown Rice

Time 1h5m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup uncooked brown rice
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons olive oil (or a combination)
1/4 cup toasted sesame seeds
1 small onion, chopped
2 cups chicken broth (preferred) or 2 cups very hot tap water
1 teaspoon salt (decrease or delete if chicken broth is salted, required with water)

Steps:

  • Saute rice in butter just until translucent and very lightly browned.
  • Add onion and sesame seeds, and continue browning until onion is translucent, stirring frequently to prevent onion from burning.
  • Drain any excess butter or olive oil.
  • Add stock or water carefully to prevent steam burns; it WILL blow steam!
  • Adjust heat for a slow simmer, cover, and cook about 45-50 minutes, stirring gently every 15 minutes.
  • If all liquid is not absorbed, remove cover and continue cooking for up to another 15 minutes.
  • Fluff with a fork before serving.
