How To Make kasha, buckweat groats, mark's
-
Step 1In a small bowl, stir the kasha into the egg and set aside. Heat the water to a simmer. In a large skillet, saute the onions and the mushrooms in butter until the onions are lightly transparent and the mushrooms have "given up their juices." Add the kasha and turn the heat to high. Stir the mix until the egg has dried. Quickly add the liquid, stirring in the salt and pepper. Cover and reduce heat to low. Steam the kasha for 10 to 15 minutes, or until all the liquid is observed. The final product should have the consistency of thick oatmeal.
