One of the pleasures of home cooking is discovering that favorite, longed-for foods are quite simple to prepare. You don’t have to go to a Thai restaurant to enjoy this comforting Asian classic.
This simple but appetizing dish is usually eaten for breakfast in both Costa Rica and Nicaragua, although it is also served at other times of the day. It can be done with black or red beans. It is usually accompanied with corn tortillas or male bananas if desired, but for a more balanced meal for diabetics, we recommend accompanying it with a steamed salad or vegetables.
Bulgur is a quick-cooking type of whole wheat, commonly used in Middle Eastern cooking, that has been cleaned, parboiled, dried and ground. This ground bulgur “meat” is a wonderful stand-in for ground beef in dishes like tacos, chili, casseroles, and “meat” sauces. One tip: It works especially well in our Corn & Green Chile Enchiladas. If taco seasoning isn’t for you, try mixing in another of your favorite seasonings!
Don’t let the long ingredients list scare you away! This lovely salad is one of my very favorites and completely worth the (minimal) trouble. And you can make a big batch of the candied pecans ahead of time!
