How To Make Bulgur and Mushroom Risotto

A hearty vegetarian dish made with bulgur and mushrooms cooked in a creamy risotto-style sauce.

Preparation: 10 minutes

Cooking: 30 minutes

Total: 40 minutes

Serves:

Ingredients

1 cup bulgur wheat
4 cups vegetable broth
2 tbsp olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
8 oz mushrooms, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper, to taste
Chopped parsley, for garnish

Instructions

In a saucepan, bring the vegetable broth to a simmer.
In a separate pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until translucent.
Add the mushrooms and garlic and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the mushrooms are tender.
Add the bulgur wheat to the pot and stir to coat with the onion and mushroom mixture.
Add 1/2 cup of the simmering broth to the pot and stir until it has been absorbed.
Continue adding the broth in 1/2 cup increments, stirring frequently, until the bulgur has become tender and the broth has been absorbed (about 20-25 minutes).
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve hot, garnished with chopped parsley.
