As a Libra September baby, it’s not shocker that fall is my FAVORITE season. Apple cider, pumpkin pie, warm spices, and soup season — what’s not to love?! I’m going to miss the change of the seasons when I move to LA next year so I’m trying to take advantage of all the fall traditions, especially when it comes to cooking.

Instructions

  1. Wash the rice (½ cup) until water runs clear and leave it soaking in water while you prep the rest of the ingredients

  2. Soak the mushrooms (3) in boiling water for at least 10 mins

  3. Cut the sausage (2 links) into thin rounds, the squash (¼ cup) into small chunks, and you’re ready to assemble

  4. Pour out the water the rice (½ cup) was soaking in and mix in the mushrooms (3), sausage (2 links), squash (¼ cup) and chestnuts (5–6) into the rice

  5. Add 1/4 cup of the mushroom soaking liquid and add enough water to cover everything

  6. Finish off with a drizzle of sesame oil (1 tsp) and bring to a boil on the stove

  7. Once it’s boiling, reduce the heat down to medium and cook for 10 min
