INGREDIENTS

  • 2 (14.5-ounce) cans vegetable broth
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, minced
  • 1 large garlic clove, minced
  • 1 ½ cups Arborio rice
  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 (8.75-ounce) can corn, drained
  • 1 (6.5-ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained

PREPARATION

In small saucepan over high heat, heat vegetable broth, white wine and turmeric to boiling. Reduce heat to low; keep simmering.

In 12-inch skillet over medium heat, in hot oil,, cook onion and garlic 5 minutes or until softened. Add Arborio rice; cook 2 minutes. Gradually add simmering liquid, ½ cup at a time until absorbed.

Serve timbales with broiled chicken or fish and canned French-cut green beans.
