INSTRUCTIONS
Source: Moosewood Cookbook, with my own minor adjustments
1. Place rice and water in a small saucepan. Boil, cover, and simmer until
tender (around 40 minutes).
2. In the meantime, heat the olive oil. Add onion, celery, salt, and saute
until tender, 5 -8 minutes. Add the seeds or pine nuts, pepper, and garlic,
and saute for another five minutes.
3. Mix in the rice and the lemon juice and herbs.
