This recipe is different from my other wheat berry recipes in that the kamut was pre-steamed and so cooked very quickly.  Not sure at the moment how I would adjust it for regular wheat berries.

Ingredients

• Some vegetable oil
• Some butter
• 1 cup pre-processed kamut. (If the bag says it takes only 10 minutes to prepare, it's pre-processed.  If you use unprocessed whole wheat, you will have to drastically expand the cooking time.)
• 8 oz sliced mushrooms
• 3/4 of a large, yellow onion
• some granulated garlic
• 24 oz of water
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp pepper
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce

Method

1. Put the vegetable oil and butter in the pan. Head to medium high.
2. Add the onions. Cook till transucent.
3. Add the mushrooms and then the garlic. Mix. Cook till softened.
4. Add the kamut and the water. Do not cover.
5. Add the salt, pepper and soy sauce.
6. Slow boil until the loose liquid is gone.

Notes for next time

• This was too salty.  Next time add the soy sauce and the pepper, then wait till 3/4 of the liquid is gone and taste to figure out how much salt too add.
• I like the beef broth version better.
• If I make this for vegetarian friends again, I think I'll add a cube of vegetable boullion.

Ingredients

• Some vegetable oil
• Some butter
• 1 cup pre-processed kamut. (If the bag says it takes only 10 minutes to prepare, it's pre-processed.  If you use unprocessed whole wheat, you will have to drastically expand the cooking time.)
• 8 oz sliced mushrooms
• 3/4 of a large, yellow onion
• a couple of cloves of minced garlic
• 24 oz of beef broth
• salt and pepper to taste later in the cooking process

Method

1. Put the vegetable oil and butter in the pan. Head to medium high.
2. Add the onions. Cook till transucent.
3. Add the mushrooms and then the garlic. Mix. Cook till softened.
4. Add the kamut and the beef broth. Cover till soft.
5. Uncover until the loose liquid is gone.

Notes for next time

• Cooking covered was a mistake: it retained too much broth too long. Next time boil completely uncovered.
• Next time try it without the beef broth to see if it's still any good.
