Brown Rice with Parsley

Ingredients

2 1/4 cup Water
1/8 tsp. Salt
1/2 cup Brown rice
2 Tbsp. Fresh parsley (coarsely chopped)
2 tsp.. Unsalted butter

Instructions

In a medium sauce pan, heat the water and salt. When the water boils, stir in the brown rice.

Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, partially covered, for about 45 minutes.

Do not boil away all of the liquid and do not stir the rice.

When a very small amount of liquid remains, remove the pan from the burner and let it stand, covered, for 5 minutes.

Just before serving, add the butter and parsley and fold gently until the butter melts. Serve.

Recipe Notes

There are so many varieties of brown rice on the market in America today, including brown jasmine rice and even brown Arborio rice. Whatever brown rice you choose, the touch of butter as flavoring along with the floweriness of the parsley makes this recipe a great accompaniment for almost any dish.

"The affair seems absurdly trifling, and yet I dare call nothing trivial when I reflect that some of my most classic cases have had the least promising commencement. You will remember, Watson, how the dreadful business of the Abernetty family was first brought to my notice by the depth which the parsley had sunk into the butter upon a hot day."

Arthur Conan Doyle, The Adventure of the Six Napoleons / The Adventure of the Crooked Man
