Ingredients

Ingredients

4 tbsp. oil
1/4 cup scallions, thinly sliced
1 cup bulgur, washed
1 cup white basmati rice
2 cups vegetable broth
Salt
1/2 cup broken walnuts
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup dates, diced

Instructions

1. Heat 2 tbsp. oil in a large wide saucepan. Stir in the scallions and saute, stirring, until tender, about 3 minutes. Add the bulgur or cracked wheat and rice. Saute, stirring, until coated with butter, about 2 minutes.

2. Add the broth and 1 tsp salt, and heat to boiling, stirring. Cover and cook over medium-low heat for 15 min, or until the liquid is absorbed. Let stand, uncovered and off the heat, for 5 minutes before serving.

3. Meanwhile, melt the remaining 2 tbsp. butter in a small skillet. When the foam subsides, stir in the walnuts, garlic, and salt to taste. Sauté, stirring constantly, until the walnuts are golden and fragrant.

4. Spoon the pilaf into a serving dish and sprinkle the top with the dates and sauteed walnuts.
