Yield serves 6-8

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 1/2 cups chicken stock (page 143) (or you may use a bouillon cube) or water
3 cups (1 pound) coarse-ground bulgur, washed in cold water and drained
Salt and pepper
1/2 cup pine nuts
4-5 tablespoons butter or vegetable oil
1/3 cup black or golden raisins, soaked in water for 1/2 hour

Steps:

  • Bring the water or stock to boil in a pan. Add the bulgur, salt (taking into account the saltiness of the stock), and pepper and stir, then cook, covered, on very low heat for about 15 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed and the grain tender. Turn off the heat and leave, covered, for 10 minutes, or until the grain is plump and tender.
  • Fry the pine nuts in a tablespoon of the butter or oil, shaking the pan until golden. Stir it into the bulgur with the remaining butter or oil and the drained raisins and heat through.

This pilaf is a great base for a variety of dishes. I've added grilled chicken, shrimp, and even tofu to it, and it's always delicious.

I added some chopped carrots and celery to this pilaf, and it was even more flavorful.

I made this pilaf with brown bulgur, and it was still delicious. Brown bulgur has a nuttier flavor than white bulgur, and it gives the pilaf a more hearty texture.

This pilaf is a great way to use up leftover bulgur. I always have some leftover from making tabbouleh, and this is a great way to use it up.
