A tasty and healthy dish for dinner. Everyone likes it! Grechaniki - delicious, golden cutlets! Even picky children, into whom it is impossible to stuff buckwheat porridge, eat them with pleasure. Cooking in a slow cooker makes buckwheat very tender and juicy. And when neighbors meet, they ask what smells so delicious from our apartment! :)

By the way, grechaniky is a dish of Ukrainian cuisine, loved and tasty by many. Of course, it is preferable to make them with meat, but there is a dietary option, replacing meat with potatoes. The potatoes need to be grated, squeezed out of moisture and mixed with boiled, already cooled buckwheat. Suitable as a Lenten dish if necessary.

To be honest, I can’t imagine the taste of potatoes with buckwheat.

I cooked buckwheat from minced meat and not in a slow cooker, the only difference was that I crushed the buckwheat with a blender... Everyone liked it.

I also make buckwheat, using minced meat. Delicious! But I’ve never tried stewing it in a tomato. I’ll use it, I think it will be even tastier.
