Curried Wild Rice With Apples and Cherries

Submitted by Nadacook

"A Wolfgang Puck side dish that was a huge hit at the last family Christmas party. I think the poor guy who brought it is sorry, because now we put in advance orders for it. Can be made ahead of time, reheats well. It was served with lamb, but I'm thinking duck...or fish....or chicken...maybe pork or beef. Anything."
