2-2/3 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon butter

Bring the water to a boil. Add the rice and salt. Cover tightly and cook over low heat until all the water is absorbed (about 50 minutes).
Brown the onions in butter and add the sliced mushrooms. Cook 5 minutes or until the mushrooms are soft. Stir in the sherry and mix well with the rice.
