Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date - Churches and Bulgur Wheat

 Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date.  For the 'Churches' theme I did Gothic church arches.  I used acrylic markers and watercolour pencils.

For the Dinner Date, I made some Bulgur Wheat inspired by dining in a Turkish Restaurant last month.

1 c coarse bulgur wheat

2 c water

1/2 onion minced

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp pepper

1/2 tsp paprika

1/2 tsp cumin

1/4 tsp dried cloves

1/4 tsp cinnamon powder

1 bay leaf

2 squirts of lemon juice

1 tbs olive oil

1 tbs unsalted butter

In a medium saucepan, saute onions in butter and olive oil.  Mix in spices, bulgur and lemon juice.  Add water and simmer covered 15 minutes.  Mix together and enjoy.

I was inspired by a few Instagram recipes, but they all seem to use a 2 to 1 ratio of water to bulgur.
