Time 50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons butter
1 large onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 cups bulgur
3 cups fat-free chicken broth
1/2 cup white wine
1/2 lb asparagus, trimmed, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
1 cup baby portabella mushrooms
3/4 cup parmesan cheese (about 1 1/2 ounces, freshly grated if possible)
1/4 cup 2% low-fat milk
2 tablespoons fresh tarragon, chopped
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; sauté until tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Mix in bulgur and 1/2 cup broth and cook until absorbed, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Add 1/2 cup broth and a 1/2 cup wine, simmering after each addition and stirring often until liquid is absorbed.
  • Mix in asparagus and mushrooms. Continue adding broth 1/2 cup at a time until bulgur is just tender and mixture is creamy, simmering after each addition and stirring often until broth is absorbed, about 20 minutes.
  • Stir in most of the Parmesan, milk and tarragon.
  • sprinkle individual servings with remaining parmesean.

Tips:

  • Prepare the bulgur in advance: To save time, soak the bulgur in warm water for 30 minutes before cooking. This will help to soften the grains and reduce the cooking time.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth: The broth is a key ingredient in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich flavor.
  • Don't overcook the bulgur: Bulgur should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked bulgur will be mushy and unpleasant.
  • Add the pumpkin and spices at the end of cooking: This will help to preserve the flavor and color of the pumpkin and spices.
  • Serve the bulgur risotto with a garnish of fresh herbs: This will add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.

Conclusion:

Bulgur risotto with pumpkin is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its nutty flavor and vibrant color, this dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
