GREEK BULGUR PILAF
The two grains usually cooked into stirs and pilafs are wheat-in the form of pligouri, or bulgur-and rizi, rice. Occasionally pearl barley sits beneath a roast, shows up in a vegetable mix, or becomes part of a pancake. Bulgur pilaf appears most commonly in northern Greece, rice virtually everywhere across the nation.

- Heat oil in saucepan. Saute onion for about 3 minutes. Add garlic, salt, pepper. Saute for 10 seconds.
