 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  1       sm           Onion -- minced
    1/2   lb           Mushrooms, sliced
  1                    Garlic clove -- minced
  1       c            Wild rice
  3 1/2   c            Chicken broth
    1/2   c            Pearl barley
                       Salt and pepper

 In a 12-inch frying pan or 2- to 3-quart pan, combine onion, mushrooms,
 garlic, and 1/2 cup water.  Cook, uncovered, on high heat until liquid
 evaporates and a brown film forms in pan, about 15 minutes; stir often.
 Add 2 or 3 tablespoons water and stir to free the brown film; cook until
 the film forms again.  Repeat this step 4 or 5 times until onions are
 richly browned, about 15 minutes.
 Rinse and drain rice.  Mix with broth in pan.  Bring to a boil on high
 heat; cover, and simmer 30 minutes.  Rinse and drain barley.  Add to rice;
 simmer until grains are tender to bite but just slightly chewy, about 20
 minutes longer.  Season with salt and pepper to taste.  Makes 5 or 6
 servings.
