Best 8 Squash And Bulgur Pie Recipes

BULGUR AND SQUASH KEFTEH

Steps:

• Place the bulgur in a bowl, mix with 1/4 teaspoon salt and cover with hot water. Let sit for 20 to 30 minutes until the bulgur is tender and has absorbed all the liquid.
• Meanwhile, steam the squash above 1 to 2 inches of boiling water for 15 to 20 minutes until thoroughly tender. Remove from the heat, allow to drain for five to 10 minutes and then mash with a fork or a pestle.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium-low heat, and add the onion. Cook gently for 10 to 15 minutes until golden and very tender. Stir often. Add the ground cumin and a pinch of salt, and stir together for about 30 seconds. Stir into the bulgur. Add the pureed squash and stir together, then transfer to a bowl.
• Knead the mixture in the bowl with the back of a spoon or with a pestle for a few minutes. Stir in the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, the parsley and the mint. Taste and adjust salt, and add freshly ground pepper. Spoon into a lightly oiled baking dish. Serve at room temperature, or heat through in a 325-degree oven until warm.

Steps:

• Puree the tomatoes, oil, lemon juice and salt to taste in a blender until fully combined. Pour the tomato mixture over the squash in a large bowl, stir to coat and let marinate while the bulgur is cooking.
• Combine 2 cups water, the bulgur and 1 teaspoon salt in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Cover immediately, remove from the heat and let stand for 20 minutes.
• Remove the squash from the marinade with a slotted spoon and add it to the bulgur. Add half the marinade and stir to combine. Add the arugula and toss. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the bulgur salad to a large, shallow bowl and scatter the basil over the top.
