Lately, I have been eating too much meat, so wanted to take a week just eating vegan and plant-based. I had a bag of wild rice that I bought a while ago from a health shop, and never used it.
I didn’t particularly fancy soup at the time, but I only had a handful of ingredients to use for a meal.
So, here we are, 1 hour later, and I have a batch of an incredibly earthy soup recipe with mushrooms and wild rice.
What Wild Rice Should You Use?
If you have ever cooked wild rice before, you know that it takes forever to cook.
If you don’t have the time to cook the wild rice for long, I recommend that you use precooked wild rice.
The grocery shops often have packets of cooked wild rice.
However, if you don’t mind cooking it yourself and you are prepared to wait for an hour for it to cook, definitely use raw wild rice.
That’s what I did!
How To Make Vegan Wild Rice Mushroom Soup With Coconut Milk
You will need these ingredients:
Mushrooms of choice
Wild Rice
Coconut Milk
Olive Oil
Onion
Garlic
Vegetable Stock
Fresh Parsley
Salt, Pepper & Spices
The method is simple; soak the uncooked wild rice in water for 30 minutes. Fry up your mushrooms with the garlic, salt, pepper and thyme is added. The rice is then added with the stock, and it’s simmered on low for about an hour. The parsley is folded in. Serve and enjoy!
