Directions Vegetarian Oven-Baked Brown and Wild Rice with Eggplant
Directions
-
In a saucepan, saute the onion in the oil until it has lightly browned. Add the garlic, salt, pepper and turmeric. Add rice and broth, bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover and cook for 30 minutes.
While the rice is cooking, peel and cut the eggplant into 1/4-inch slices. Sprinkle with salt and set aside for about 10 minutes. Rinse and pat dry.
Lightly salt the eggplant and spray with oil. Brown both sides in a hot skillet, set aside.
Once the rice is cooked, mix in yogurt and transfer mixture to a large shallow casserole dish. Spread the navy and garbanzo beans over the rice and then top with layer of eggplant and chopped tomatoes.
Bake uncovered in a preheated 350 F oven for about 20 minutes.
