APRICOT ALMOND PILAF



Apricot Almond Pilaf image

A sumptuous but easy Persian-inspired dish. Rosewater can be found in Middle Eastern groceries and in many large supermarkets. The carrot, saffron, and apricots make for a beautiful gold color. Add a pinch of cinnamon or cardamom along with the saffron, if desired.

APRICOT-SAFFRON BULGUR



Apricot-Saffron Bulgur image

A nice side dish that goes great with grilled chicken (for example) or lamb (or beef, or anything I guess). Try it one day when you're tired of white rice!

Provided by Svenska Kocken

Categories     Grains

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup bulgur (dry)
1/2 cup dried apricot, diced
1/2 cup onion, diced
3 ounces sliced almonds (I use half of a 6 oz package, that's why it is not measured in "cups")
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 g saffron (usually 1 small package is this size)

Steps:

  • Prepare bulgur according to directions on package (usually boil 2x as much water as you will make bulgur, take off heat, add bulgur, stir, let sit 5 mins).
  • Stir saffron into bulgur (you can do this at any time, you can add saffron into the water as it boils -- I usually do -- or you can add it after the bulgur is made -- which I did when I forgot it!).
  • While bulgur is cooking, sauté onions in butter over med-high heat, as soon as onions begin to get soft (2 mins) add apricots. Lower heat to med-low and sauté for an additional 10 minutes.
  • Add sliced almonds to the apricot/onion mix.
  • When bulgur is ready, add apricot/onion/almond mix; fluff and serve!
