Whole-grain bulgur and cooked chickpeas cook quickly in a pressure cooker to make a filling breakfast pilaf that raises blood sugar slowly. Quick to prepare with economical ingredients, it also fits easily into a brunch spread.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Sauté the onion

5 min

Heat the olive oil in the pressure cooker and sauté the chopped onion until lightly golden.

2

Add the bulgur

2 min

Add the bulgur and toast for 2 minutes, stirring, until the grains look glossy.

3

Add the chickpeas and water

3 min

Stir in the cooked chickpeas, hot water, salt and black pepper. If using canned chickpeas, drain and rinse them first.

4

Pressure-cook

8 min

Close the lid and bring to the boil over medium heat. Once the pressure cooker starts to whistle, cook over low heat for 8 minutes.

5

Release the pressure and rest

5 min

Turn off the heat and wait 5 minutes for the pressure to drop naturally. Open the lid, stir and serve.

Reminder

Toast the bulgur until the grains look glossy; this helps keep them separate after cooking. Never force the pressure cooker to depressurize. Allergens: contains gluten (bulgur).
