Ingredients:
1/2 cup cracked bulgur wheat
1 1/2 cups boiling water
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 red onions, peeled and chopped ( 1 1/4 cups)
2 garlic cloves, peeled, crushed, and chopped ( 1 teaspoon)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/2 cup frozen baby peas
1 1/2 teaspoons unsalted butter
Directions:
Place bulgur in a heat-proof bowl and pour 1 1/2 cups boiling water over it. Let stand for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until most of the water is absorbed by the wheat. Drain.
Heat oil in saucepan. Saute onion for about 3 minutes. Add garlic, salt, pepper. Saute for 10 seconds.
Stir the drained bulgur wheat into the onion mixture. Cook for 4-5 minutes. The excess moisture will cook away and then the wheat will begin to brown and become fluffy.
Add in the frozen peas. Mix well and cook for about 1 minute longer. Stir in the butter.
Serve immediately.
