Ingredients
- 270g brown rice
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 medium onions, finely diced
- 4 garlic cloves, crushed

- Handful fresh parsley, chopped
- Finely grated zest of 2 lemons, plus juice of 1 lemon
Method
- Put the rice and a good pinch of salt in a saucepan and cover with twice the volume of cold water. Cover and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes. Drain well.
- Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes until soft. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Turn up the heat, add the mushrooms and season. Cook, stirring, for 3-4 minutes, until they have wilted. Take off the heat.
- Add the rice to the onions, along with the parsley, lemon zest and juice. Mix well, season and cool until needed.

You can make this stuffing up to 3 days in advance – just let it cool then store in an airtight container in the fridge. You can spread the rice out a little to help it cool more quickly before you pack and chill. Reheat thoroughly before eating.
