Buckwheat With Mushrooms Recipe

Preparation of Ingredients

Begin by finely chopping the onions and garlic. Clean the mushrooms with a damp cloth and slice them. If using herbs like parsley or rosemary, chop them finely. Measure the buckwheat, olive oil, salt, and pepper according to the recipe.

Cooking Buckwheat

Rinse the buckwheat under cold water. In a medium-sized pot, bring water to a boil, add salt, and then add the buckwheat. Reduce the heat and simmer until the buckwheat is tender but still has a bite, about 15 to 20 minutes. Drain any excess water and set aside.

Sautéing Vegetables

While the buckwheat is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and garlic, sautéing until translucent and fragrant. Increase the heat to medium-high, add the sliced mushrooms, and cook until they are golden and their moisture has evaporated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Combining Ingredients

Add the cooked buckwheat to the skillet with the mushrooms and onions. Mix well to combine all the ingredients evenly. If the mixture seems dry, you can add a little more olive oil or a splash of water to moisten. Cook together for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Serving

Remove from heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley or rosemary before serving. Serve hot as a fulfilling main dish or as a hearty side. Enjoy your buckwheat with mushrooms.
