100 g cucumber
200 g long-grain rice
500 ml vegetable broth
2 tbsp olive oil

Equipment

Method

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked black beans, honey, Dijon mustard, and season with salt and pepper. Stir until well coated.
In a sauté pan, heat olive oil over medium heat, then add the sliced mushrooms. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned and tender.
Cook the long-grain rice according to package instructions using vegetable broth for added flavor. This usually takes around 15-20 minutes.
Once the rice is cooked, combine it with the honey mustard black bean mixture and sautéed mushrooms in a large bowl. Mix until well combined.
Transfer the mixture into an oven-safe baking dish. Top with diced cucumber and gently press down to create an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. The dish should be heated through and slightly bubbling.
Remove from the oven, let it rest for 5 minutes, and garnish with fresh dill before serving. Enjoy!
