Answer 2

You can use brown rice in almost any recipe requiring rice, just remember that brown rice takes longer to cook. Either that or use a recipe that requires the addition of rice that has been pre-cooked. To make it taste more interesting add some vegetable stock. I have put in the source box the vegetarian society website, but have a look at the BBC website too.

Answer 3

2 cups brown rice (uncooked)
2 cups lentils (uncooked)
2 cups carrots (peeled and sliced)
2 cups broccoli (chopped up)

Salt & pepper to taste

Cover all of this with water and bring to a boil, then turn down to simmer and cover until the water is absorbed... this may take a little trail and error. it's not exact because I don't cook with exact measurements. It is a great dish for a vegetarian dinner and if you keep some in the fridge it's great for when you are in a hurry. Sometimes I put soya sauce on it, others I add curry paste to the pot at the very beginning. It's very versatile and you can change it to your liking every time. Once I even added curry powder and raisins at the very beginning.... I'm ca-ray-zee!

Answer 4

In general brown rice can be cooked just like regular rice and takes little longer to cook and need about 21/2 cup of water per cup of rice, salt to taste1/2 tea sp is my taste little olive oil or butter or ghee(1/2 to 1 tea sp). To be exact check the packaging for amount of water per cup of uncooked rice.

You can generally add spices and vegetables,nut, dried fruits... of your choice while cooking the rice or you can sote (fry lightly) it separately and mix/assemble it latter. (Some times you can try lightly frying the rice before cooking in water, will require slightly more water and time to cook).

When done you can name it by ingredients with some exotic prefix or suffix that you can think of.

EG

Brown rice a la magnific/gran ( amy, john,king, raja, rani,.......), with almond, resins ...........

PS

There are recipes in the cook books at your library and on Internet also some recipes have both meat and vegetables but you can live out the meat and cook with veggies only.
It is more fun to invent your own and experiment . Trick is to write down as you go and and add your remarks after cooking and eating to improvise next time. This will let you duplicate the recipe in future.
