Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1 c Brown basmati rice
1 3/4 c Water
1/4 ts Sea salt
1 tb Olive oil (may be doubled)
1 md Onion; chopped
1/2 c Chopped celery
1 Garlic clove; minced
1/2 c Small walnut pieces
2 1/2 tb Chopped fresh rosemary
1 tb Tamari or shoyu

Wash and drain the rice and place it in a heavy saucepan over medium heat.
Let the rice dry out somewhat and begin to toast lightly, then add the
water and salt. Bring to the boil, boil for 1 minute, then cover and cook
over low heat without stirring for 40 minutes. Let the rice rest for 10
minutes before removing the lid. Fluff the rice with a rice paddle or
fork.

While the rice is cooking, heat the oil in a skillet and add the onion,
celery, and garlic. Saute for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the walnuts and
rosemary and saute about 5 minutes longer. Add the tamari or shoyu and
mix well. Combine the sauteed mixture with the rice.

Serve immediately or reheat in a casserole.

Variation: Add 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms along with the walnuts.
