Submitted by prusia

Makes 4 servings


This is a great side dish to go with salmon or other fish. It has a slightly crunchy texture and is great for variety instead of rice or couscous with a meal.

Ingredients
1 cup bulgur wheat
1/2 onion
1 tsp olive oil
1 tsp grated ginger
1 tsp chopped garlic
2 cups vegetable broth
Directions
In a sauce pan, sautee onion, garlic, and ginger in olive oil until translucent and fragrant. Add bulgur wheat and stir for about 1 minute. Add broth and stir. Cover and place in a 400 degree oven for about 30 minutes. Let stand for about 5 minutes to absorb any excess liquid.
