12. CRACKED WHEAT PILAF WITH TOMATOES.
DOMATESLI BOULGHOUR PILAF.
Ingredients:
Plain water .................................................. 3 cupfuls.
Cracked Wheat ................................................. 1 cupful.
Butter ................................................. 1 tablespoonful.
Tomatoes .... 2 to 3, ripe (or 3 to 4 tablespoonfuls of canned tomatoes).
Salt, to taste.
Method:
Heat the butter to burning point, add the tomatoes, and fry for 10 to 12
minutes; then pour in the water gradually, and when this comes to a boiling
point, add the cracked wheat, also the salt, and boil until done, when a piece
of white muslin should be thrown over the vessel, under the lid, to prevent the
steam from falling back into the pilaf. After ten minutes the pilaf should be
stirred with the aid of a perforated spoon, and the dampness may be caused to
evaporate by placing the vessel in a moderately hot oven.
