Ingredients
  • ½ cup wild rice
  • ½ cup long grain brown rice
  • 2 each shallots, or a good-sized leek, or
  • a medium yellow onion
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 ½ cup (packed) fresh spinach
  • hazelnuts, toasted and chopped
  • butter
  • sea salt and black pepper

Directions
  1. Rinse wild rice. Set a medium sized saucepan full of water to boil and cook rice until tender, 30-40 minutes.
  2. In a separate pot, bring 1 cup water to boil and add brown rice. Cover, turn heat to low, and cook until all of the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.
  3. If rices are cooked before you are ready to assemble the dish, take care to keep them moist and warm.
  4. In a small saute pan, heat butter with a little bit of olive oil.
  5. Caramelize shallot, leek, or onion, then turn heat down slightly and add garlic.
  6. Cook a bit more, until the "bite" is dissipated.
  7. Cover and heat until spinach is wilted, just a few moments.
  8. Sprinkle on hazelnuts and season to taste with pepper and salt.
