Risoni and Rice Pilaf
Risoni and Rice Pilaf
This is a side dish I make instead of plain rice which combines risoni and rice simmered in chicken stock.
Ingredients
Serves: 4
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup (100g) risoni pasta
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup (90g) uncooked white rice
- 2 cups (500ml) chicken stock

- Melt the butter in a lidded frypan over medium-low heat. Cook and stir risoni pasta until golden brown. Stir in onion and cook until onion becomes translucent, then add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Mix in the rice and chicken stock. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.

This is a simple but extremely delicious and versatile dish. I use it all the time, as it is and sometimes with variations. It is so Yum!! - 10 Feb 2013
Have made a couple of times- delicious! Can be veganised also using non animal stock powder and olive oil rather than butter! - 02 Jun 2016
When I first decided to make this recipe, I was little dubious because the ingredients didn't seem too exciting. Boy, was I wrong! This dish was incredibly good...something that I would definitely make again! The taste/texture was similar to Rice-a-Roni, but so much better, without that packaged taste. I topped it with chopped chives for a little more color, and everyone loved it. Thanks so much for sharing!!! - 13 Sep 2009 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
