Buckwheat is not very popular outside Russia, the former USSR, and some Asian

countries; but it is a nice grain full of nutrients which can be used to prepare

delicious and nutritious dishes.


Ingredients


The ingredients below are for 2 hearty portions.



Directions


1. Chop the onion and cut the pork into small pieces.

2. Dust the pork with some flour. I sometimes like to do this once I've added

the pork to the pan, just because I am lazy and I haven't noticed much

difference between either approach.

3. Heat the frying pan add a bit of oil, add the pork and onion, and fry for

about 10-15 minutes over medium-high heat.

4. While the pork and onion are being fried, cut the carrot into small pieces

and chop the parsley.

5. Once the pork and onion are fried, add the water, tomato paste, buckwheat and

carrots.

6. Add curcuma, chili powder, salt and black pepper to taste; mix thoroughly.

7. Add in the garlic cloves, bay leaves and chopped parsley.

8. Once the water is boiling, close the pan with a lid and stew for about 25

minutes over low heat.

9. Serve hot and enjoy!
