Overnight Bulgur Wheat Porridge

Two ways
Course Breakfast
Servings 3 people

Equipment

  • Electric pressure cooker, optional

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup bulgur wheat
  • 4 cup water (or make it 3 cups for heartier breakfast)
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder optional
  • 3 dates, pitted and chopped one per person
  • 1 tbsp ghee optional
  • milk to achieve desired consistency I used about one cup, optional

Instructions
 

Using a Pressure Cooker

  • In the evening add water to your electric pressure cooker. I use Instant Pot Mini.
  • Add bulgur wheat, cinnamon, dates and ghee, if using.
  • Set up Pressure Cook option for 3 minutes on high pressure.
  • Set up the delay timer to start 35 minutes before you plan to eat.
  • In the morning, the pressure should be already released just before your meal. Open the lid and stir in the milk. Optionally, let it simmer for 5 minutes to thicken more.
  • Serve! That is all you need to do on a busy morning.

Using the Hob

  • In the evening, combine all the ingredients apart from water and milk in a medium saucepan.
  • Add the water but it has to be hot using this method.
  • Cover and leave it overnight.
  • In the morning heat it through with the added milk.
  • Enjoy!
