Sauté rice, stirring constantly, in peanut oil or vegetable oil until toasty-golden in a large frying pan; remove with a slotted spoon and set aside. Stir onion and celery into drippings in pan; sauté just until soft. Stir in chicken broth or bouillon cubes, rosemary and water; heat to boiling, crushing cubes, if using, with a spoon. Stir in bulgur wheat and browned rice; cover. Simmer, stirring once or twice, 1 hour, or until liquid is absorbed and wheat and rice are fluffy-tender. |
