Ingredients
½ cup uncooked brown sushi rice
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 cup diced onion
4 cups low-sodium chicken stock
1 cup white wine
2 cups roasted butternut squash, chopped
1 cup chopped zucchini
½ cup frozen peas
5 chopped crimini mushrooms
1 tablespoon chopped sage
1 teaspoon chopped thyme
½ cup shredded Asiago cheese
1 tablespoon heavy cream
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
Directions
Follow package directions to partially cook the rice for about 40 minutes. Drain excess water and set aside.
Preheat a medium sauté pan to medium-high heat and add olive oil.
Add the onions and sauté until soft.
Add the rice to the pan and sauté with the onions for about 2 minutes, stirring continuously.
Reserve 1/2 cup of stock. Then pour 1/2 cup of stock into sauté pan and let it absorb into the rice.
Stir in 1/2 cup of wine and let it absorb into the rice.
Continue adding stock and wine in 1/2-cup increments, cooking each time until the liquid is absorbed before adding more, about 30 to 45 minutes total.
Add the squash, zucchini, peas, mushrooms, sage and thyme to the pan, and cook until the vegetables are soft, about 3 to 5 minutes.
Add the last 1/2 cup of the stock. Once the stock is absorbed into the rice, add the cheese, cream, salt and pepper; stir well.
Dietitian’s tip:
Traditional risotto is made with uncooked white rice. Brown rice adds fiber and nutrients, but it takes a long time to make risotto this way. That’s why this recipe calls for partially cooking the rice.

3 tbsp olive oil
2 large red onions, thinly sliced and separated into rings
1 tbsp light muscovado sugar
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
4 x 175g (6oz) thin-cut rump or sirloin steak
2 small ciabatta loaves
8 tbsp mayonnaise
2 tsp dijon mustard
2 tsp wholegrain mustard
4 ripe tomatoes, sliced
50g (2oz) wild rocket
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat and preheat the grill. Fry the onions for 10 minutes, until softened and golden, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle over the sugar and balsamic vinegar and cook for another 2–3 minutes, until the sugar has dissolved and is slightly syrupy, stirring continuously. Keep warm.
Heat a griddle pan over a high heat. Rub the remaining tablespoon of oil into the steaks and then season them generously. Add them to the heated pan and cook over a high heat for 3–4 minutes on each side for well done, or according to taste.
Split the ciabatta loaves in half and arrange on the grill rack cut side up. Place under the grill until lightly toasted. Mix the mayonnaise in a small bowl with the two mustards.
Place a piece of the toasted ciabatta on each warmed serving plate. Add a good smear of the mustard mayonnaise and then arrange a layer of the tomato slices on it. Season to taste and add the rocket. Place the steak on top and add the reserved caramelised onions. Dollop over the rest of the mustard mayonnaise to serve.
Beef Stroganoff with Fluffy rice and dill pickle Shavings
Traditionally this was served with buttered noodles, not unlike tagliatelle, but it is so much nicer with fluffy rice. The soured cream is not strictly necessary and regular cream will work just as well.
Serves 4
1 tbsp plain flour
2 tsp sweet paprika, plus extra to garnish
450g (1lb) sirloin steak, cut into thin strips
25g (1oz) butter
2 tbsp sunflower oil
1 large shallot, finely chopped
150g (5oz) button mushrooms, halved
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 tbsp white wine vinegar
150ml (¼ pint) chicken stock
4 tbsp white wine
2 tsp tomato purée
1 tsp dijon mustard
150ml (¼ pint) soured cream
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
fluffy rice, to serve
dill pickle shavings, to serve
Toss the flour and paprika together in a shallow dish with seasoning and then use to coat the steak. Heat half the butter and oil in a frying pan over a high heat. Add the steak and stir-fry for 4–5 minutes, until sealed and lightly browned. Tip onto a plate and set aside.
Reheat the pan over a medium heat. Add the rest of the butter and oil and then add the shallot. Sauté for 2–3 minutes, until softened but not coloured. Increase the heat to high and add the mushrooms to the pan with the garlic. Season to taste and continue to sauté for another 2–3 minutes, until tender.
Add the white wine vinegar and allow to bubble right down, then add the stock, wine, tomato purée and mustard, stirring to combine. Tip the sautéed beef with any juices back into the pan, then bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer gently for about 5 minutes, until the sauce has reduced by half, stirring occasionally.
Stir the soured cream into the pan and return to the boil, then reduce the heat again and simmer gently for a couple of minutes and cook until the sauce has thickened and slightly reduced. Divide the fluffy rice between warmed plates and spoon over the beef stroganoff. Add dill pickle shavings and serve at once.
