How to Make Brown Rice And Bulgur
- Rinse 1 cup brown rice and 1 cup bulgur wheat in a fine-mesh sieve until water runs clear.
- Combine rinsed brown rice, 1 cup bulgur wheat, and 2 1/2 cups water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover the saucepan tightly, and simmer for 40 minutes.
- Turn off the heat and let the rice and bulgur stand, covered, for 5-10 minutes.
- Fluff the cooked grains gently with a fork.
- Serve hot as a side dish or allow to cool for later use. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
- **To make a Pilaf:** Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil or butter in a separate pan over medium heat.
- Sauté 1/2 cup chopped onion and/or 2 cloves minced garlic until softened (about 5 minutes). Add 1 cup of your favorite chopped vegetables (e.g., carrots, zucchini, bell peppers) and sauté for another 5 minutes.
- Stir the sautéed vegetables into the cooked rice and bulgur. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and any other desired herbs or spices. Heat through before serving.
