Groceries in the U.S. Look for buckwheat as “buckwheat groats” or “kasha” (Bob's Red Mill, Wolff's) in the grains or health-food aisle.

Ingredients

  • Buckwheat groats - 1 cup
  • Water - 2 cups
  • Mushrooms - 250 g (about 8 oz)
  • Onion - 1
  • Butter - 2 tbsp
  • Salt and pepper - to taste

Method

  1. Rinse the buckwheat, cover it with 2 cups of salted water and bring to a boil.
  2. Cover with a lid and cook over low heat for 15-18 minutes, until the water is absorbed.
  3. Chop the onion and mushrooms and fry them in butter until golden.
  4. Mix the buckwheat with the mushrooms, add butter, and season with salt and pepper.
Let mushroom moisture evaporate before combining with the cooked buckwheat.
