Burghul & Freekeh Pilaf
Report
Serves 6 to 8. Note I adapted the recipe slightly and replaced the chicken stock with vegetable stock. I also didn't have any dried pomegranate seeds so added fresh pomegranate seeds as garnish.

Ingredients
- 4 tbs olive oil
- ½ red onion chopped
- 1 cup burghul coarse
- 1 cup freekeh
- 3 cups vegetable stock
- 1 tsp allspice
- orange zest and juice of 1
- ½ cup apricots sliced, dried
- ½ cup pine nuts
- ½ cup pistachios
- ½ cup almonds
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- pomegranate seeds from 1 pomegranate, to garnish
- ½ cup parsley roughly chopped, to garnish
Instructions
- Rinse the freekeh and burghul and set aside to drain in a fine sieve.
- Place a medium pot over a medium heat and add the olive oil and onion and saute until soft. Add the burghul and freekeh and toss to coat in the oil before adding the stock. Follow with the orange zest and juice, allspice, apricots, salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to the boil and reduce to a simmer and add half the pine nuts, almonds and pistachios. Cover, and cook for 15 minutes.
- Remove from the pot and place on a platter or in a large bowl and garnish with the fresh pomegranate seeds and parsley and remaining nuts.
