Kasha with mushrooms, part 1

by Don  

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.
