Buckwheat With Eggs And Onion | Russian Chef | Russian Cuisine



My parents often made buckwheat with eggs and onion when they were tired. It's easy to cook and pretty much tasty.

You'll need for buckwheat kasha:
  • 225 g buckwheat;
  • 400 ml water;
  • salt.
Also you'll need:
  • 2 eggs;
  • 1/2 onion bulb.
The Recipe of the Buckwheat Kasha

Put the buckwheat in a pot and wash it out several times with cold water. Add to the clean buckwheat the water (400 ml), salt (water should be saltish on taste) and put the pot on a fire. Bring it to the boiling. Make the fire small and boil the buckwheat under the lid for 15 min at least. Cook it until the water evaporates.

While the buckwheat is preparing make a hard-boiled egg in another pot (boil it in water for 10 min).

When the egg and the buckwheat are ready put them in a pan. Put there also finely cut onion. Stew the buckwheat until onion will be soft.

Mmmm)))))))
