INSTRUCTIONS
Wash the baby basmati rice very well and drain. Do not soak. In a
separate bowl, wash and pick through the mung beans, and soak for one
hour in warm water. Heat the oil and add 4 of the green cardamom pods
and clove. Next, add the shallots and sweat. Add the basmati and
sweat. While stirring, add the vegetable stock a little at a time.
Season with salt, pepper and cardamom and continue to cook until rice
is al dente (adding stock as needed). Finish with a tablespoon of
butter. In a small pot, add mung beans, ginger, garlic and shallot
piquet and cover with the vegetable stock. Cook until tender, then add
the salt. Pull out the spices and the piquet. Add the mung beans with
stock to the rice. Adjust seasoning. Put small mound of rice in a bowl
and top with wild mushroom fricassee. Mushroom Fricassee: To a heated
saute pan, add oil and shahi jeera until fragrant. Add the mushrooms
and saute very quickly until golden brown. Add the minced shallots and
sweat. Season with salt and pepper. Add the tarragon. Remove from heat
and top with the chervil. This recipe yields 6 servings. Comments: The
