Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cups Fine bulgur
- 4 cups Whole milk
- 1 cup Water
- 0.25 cups Sugar
- 2 tablespoons Honey (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Cinnamon powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts, almonds) for garnish
- 2 tablespoons Dried fruits (e.g., raisins, chopped dates) for garnish
Instructions
Rinse the bulgur thoroughly under cold water in a fine mesh strainer to remove any impurities.
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed bulgur and 1 cup of water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the bulgur absorbs most of the water and becomes tender.
Add the milk to the saucepan with the cooked bulgur. Stir well and cook over medium heat, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Once simmering, reduce the heat to low and stir in the sugar, honey (if using), vanilla extract, cinnamon powder, and salt. Mix until the sugar dissolves completely.
Continue to simmer the pudding over low heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking, for about 15 minutes or until the mixture thickens to your desired consistency.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the pudding cool slightly. It will thicken further as it cools.
Spoon the pudding into serving bowls or ramekins. Garnish each serving with chopped nuts and dried fruits for added texture and flavor.
Serve warm or chilled. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Enjoy this wholesome and comforting dessert while reaping its digestive benefits!
