Ingredients

• 1 Onion small-sized, very thinly sliced
• 1 Tbsp Oil (Olive, Canola, Vegetable)
• 1/2 cup Green Bell Pepper chopped
• 2 Tbsp Tomato Paste
• 1 Tbsp Pepper Paste (optional)
• 1 cup Bulgur
• 2 cups Water
• 1 tsp Cumin
• 1 Salt to taste

Instructions

1. Cook onions in oil until they are translucent. Add the diced peppers and sauté for a little bit. Add tomato paste (and pepper paste if you are using it) and stir. Then add bulgur, water and salt. Cook for 20-25 minutes or until all the water is absorbed by the bulgur. Gently stir in the cumin to the cooked pilaf and let it rest for a few minutes. Makes 4 servings.
