Hardy invented this as a way to use Field Roast, which had until that point had stymied us. It contributes a lot of the flavor profile for this pilaf. You can use a Beyond Meat brat, for a gluten-free version. Or you can serve it with both Field Roast and a Beyond Brat on the side, let people choose.
instant pot
8 Servings
- 2 T olive oil
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 t garlic, minced (optional)
- 1 package of Field Roast Smoked Apple Sage Sausage, chopped
- 3 cloves of garlic, chopped (use jarrred, don't be a hero)
- 3 C wild rice mix (whatever you can find, bulk is great)
- 3.75 C water
- 3 t Better Than Bouillon or 2 veggie bouillon cubes
Sauté onion in the cooker. Add garlic (if you're using it). Add field roast sauté a minute more. Add rice, brown a bit more (3 or 4 minutes), stirring constantly. Add water and bouillon, put on the lid, lock it, cook for 20 minutes, let it natural release.
If you need to avoid gluten, you should substitute a Beyond Meat Brat for the Field Roast. OR, you can make both the Field Roast and the Beyond Brat in different skillets, and serve them on the side, let folks pick their poison.
