Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons olive oil
3 shallots, finely chopped
1 cup medium bulgur
2 cups vegetable stock
sat and pepper (to taste)
1 cup tomatoes, finely diced (fresh or canned)
1 tablespoon of fresh mint, chopped

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots, cover, and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the bulgur and stir to combine. Stir in the stock and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cove and simmer until the bulgur is tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 15 minutes.

I'm not a big fan of mint, so I omitted it from the recipe. The pilaf was still delicious without it.
