Mushroom Walnut Pilaf with Sorrel & Arugula Sauce
Mushroom and Walnut Pilaf with Sorrel and Arugula Sauce
The earthy taste of mushrooms are the perfect counterpart to the tart green spiciness of the arugula and french sorrel. This dish is low in fat but very high in taste, savor, texture and comfort. Be sure that your casserole has a tight-fitting lid and don’t cook the rice more than an hour.
