Apricot-saffron Bulgur Recipe

Print Recipe

Ingredients

1/2 c onions, sliced .
1 c bulgur (dry) .
1/2 c dried apricots, sliced .
1/2 g saffron (usually 1 small package is this size) .
1 tbsp butter .
3 oz sliced almonds (I use half of a 6 oz package, that's why it is not measured in "c")

Directions

Step #1 Prepare bulgur according to directions on package (usually boil 2x as much water as you will make bulgur, take off heat, add bulgur, stir, let sit 5 mins).
Step #2 Stir saffron into bulgur (you can do this at any time, you can add saffron into the water as it boils -- I usually do -- or you can add it after the bulgur is made -- which I did when I forgot it!).
Step #3 While bulgur is cooking, sauté onions in butter over med-high heat, as soon as onions begin to get soft (2 mins) add apricots.
Step #4 Lower heat to med-low & sauté for an extra 10 mins.
Step #5 Add sliced almonds to the apricot/onion mix.
