I can't take any credit for this recipe, ripped it right off Kuhn Rikon's
website. And oh how I love the pressure cooker and vitamix. Dinner was ready in 30 mins flat!
Ingredients:
1 cup brown rice
1 1/2 cups water
1 small turnip, peeled and cubed
1 pound banana squash, peeled and cubed
2 carrots, peeled and sliced
1 small zucchini, quartered lengthwise and sliced
3 stalks Swiss chard, leafy greens coarsely chopped, stems diced
1 stalk broccoli including stem, coarsely chopped
1/3 cup finely chopped water chestnuts
(I didnt have this..)Directions:
1. In a 4-quart or larger pressure cooker, bring rice and water to a boil.
2. Close lid and bring pressure to first red ring over high heat. Adjust heat to stabilize pressure at first red ring. Cook for 10 minutes.
3. Remove from heat and use Natural Release Method.
4. Add vegetables, stir until mixed.
5. Close lid and bring pressure to first red ring over high heat. Adjust heat to stabilize pressure at first red ring. Cook for 1 minute.
6. Remove from heat and use Natural Release Method.
Notes:
* The beauty of this dish is its tendency to let the individual vegetable flavors shine. If this recipe seems too bland for your personal taste, add a light seasoning of salt and freshly ground pepper. There is also a nice organic Swiss seasoning called Herbamare, by Bioforce, that can be used. It is available at specialty markets and health food stores.
(I happen to have Herbamare, its well stocked at Whole Foods)
