Ingredients

1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced
1/2 cup chopped green onions
2 tablespoons butter
2 cups cooked wild rice
1/3 cup whole milk
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
Canola oil

Directions

In a large skillet, saute mushrooms and onions in butter until tender. Transfer to a large bowl; cool. Stir in the rice, milk and eggs. Combine flour, baking powder and salt; gradually stir into rice mixture just until combined.
Heat 2 tablespoons oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Drop batter by 2 tablespoons into oil. Fry in batches until golden brown on both sides, using remaining oil as needed. Drain on paper towels.

Editor's Note: Two-thirds cups uncooked wild rice yields 2 cups cooked wild rice.
