A winter dish from Central Anatolia, dövme aşı is made by soaking cracked wheat overnight and simmering it with chickpeas for hours until it turns into a thick porridge. This meatless version is finished with a butter sauce, and the long simmer is what gives it its texture.
Soak the cracked wheat and chickpeas separately in plenty of water overnight. Drain both in the morning.
Put the drained chickpeas and wheat in a large pot and add the hot water. Once it boils, simmer on low heat for 2.5 hours, stirring occasionally, until the wheat breaks down into a porridge.
Melt the butter in a small pan, sauté the diced onion until it turns pink, stir in the ground red pepper and take it off the heat right away.
Season the porridge with salt and spoon it into bowls, then drizzle the hot butter topping over each serving.
Do not skip soaking the cracked wheat overnight, or it takes far longer to reach porridge consistency. Allergens: contains gluten (wheat).
Do not skip stirring over low heat; if the wheat catches on the bottom it turns bitter and the whole pot picks up that taste.
