chopped onions – Veggiewitch

Mixed Veg & Buckwheat Stir-fry
2011-Current © copyright veggiewitch, all rights reserved

I haven’t done a stir-fry in a while, so tonight I figured it was time to make one. Just to be a little different, I made savoury buckwheat groats instead of rice, noodles or quinoa. I think I’ve found a new fave! Normally, I prefer my buckwheat as porridge with maple syrup, but I’ll definitely be using it more with supper dishes. ♥

Savoury Buckwheat Groats

1 C buckwheat* groats

1 chopped onion*

½ tsp turmeric*

1-2 cloves minced garlic*

salt and pepper* to taste

1½ C water

* = Organic

∴ Heat oil over medium heat. Add onions and groats. Saute until onions begin to turn translucent. Add turmeric, garlic, salt and pepper, and toss to coat all. Add water and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally to avoid sticking/burning. Cover and reduce heat to simmer for 30 minutes. Fluff with a fork and enjoy. Serve with your favourite blend of veg for stir-fry, or in place of rice.
