Add the boiled water to the pot with the wild rice and mix well.

Add 4 beef bouillon cubes to the rice mixture and stir.

Cover the pot and let the rice cook for about 15-20 minutes, checking and mixing occasionally.

In a separate skillet, heat 4 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat.

Add the diced onions to the skillet and sauté for about 4 minutes until browned.

Add the cut mushrooms to the skillet and sauté on medium-high heat to evaporate their moisture.

Add 1 tablespoon of dry fennel to the mushrooms and mix well, cooking for a few more minutes.

Check the wild rice; if there is still water, lift the lid to let it evaporate and cook until dry.
