Buckwheat merchant style in a slow cooker

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 40 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make buckwheat the merchant style in a slow cooker? Prepare your food. You can use any meat, either beef or chicken will do, I took pork, shoulder blade. Like mushrooms, you can use any wild mushrooms; buckwheat with whites is especially tasty. In winter, fresh mushrooms are an excellent substitute for dry or frozen ones.

2. STEP 2

   

   Wash the meat, dry it well with napkins and cut into small pieces.

3. STEP 3

   

   Pour oil into the multicooker bowl, turn on the mode suitable for frying (I use “Frying”, 140 degrees) for 30 minutes. Wait for the oil to heat up and place the meat in the bowl. Fry it, stirring, with the lid open for 5 minutes.

4. STEP 4

   

   During this time, wash and peel the vegetables. Grate the carrots on a coarse grater, cut the onion into cubes.

5. STEP 5

   

   After the meat has turned white, add vegetables to it, stir, and close the lid. Leave for 10 minutes.

6. STEP 6

   

   Sort the buckwheat if necessary, then rinse thoroughly several times until the water runs clear. Place the cereal in a sieve to drain excess liquid.

7. STEP 7

   

   Wipe the champignons with a damp sponge - this will make the mushrooms clean, but not saturated with excess moisture. Cut them into slices 0.5 cm thick. Boil the forest mushrooms first. Dry ones will have to be pre-soaked for several hours. Then pour the water in which they will be soaked into the slow cooker, replacing some of the ordinary water - it will add additional aroma and taste to the dish.

8. STEP 8

   

   Add mushrooms to vegetables, add salt, stir. Close the lid and cook until the end of the mode.

9. STEP 9

   

   Then add chopped garlic, spices and bay leaf. Add buckwheat.

10. STEP 10

    

    Pour in hot water so that the multicooker does not spend extra time heating it. There is no need to mix the products. Close the lid, set the mode suitable for cooking buckwheat (for me it’s “Grain”) for 40 minutes. After the signal, keep the dish in the “Warming” mode for 30 minutes. If you do not have such a mode, then simply leave the dish in the multicooker without opening the lid.

11. STEP 11

    

    After this, open the lid and stir the dish.

12. STEP 12

    

    Our delicious buckwheat is ready. Nourishing, fragrant and very tasty! Bon appetit!

Merchant-style buckwheat in a slow cooker is a very satisfying and tasty dish that can be made as easily as possible. To be honest, I took all the ingredients by eye and did not measure them on the scale. From the spices I took a ready-made mixture for meat. I placed all the ingredients into the multicooker bowl in the order described in the recipe. The modes on the multicooker were the same as those used by the author. Buckwheat with mushrooms and pork turned out to be very satisfying. Despite the simplicity of preparation, the dish is very tasty and appetizing. Buckwheat, meat and mushrooms together created an excellent flavor combination, complementing each other perfectly. Thank you very much for the recipe!

It would seem that what could be easier than cooking buckwheat porridge! But it turns out that in order for it to be truly tasty, you need to know many secrets: what kind of water to throw it in, when is the best time to put oil, how much to cook, etc. But now, thanks to my miracle multi-cooker, the porridge is always crumbly, delicious. I've heard a lot about merchant-style buckwheat, but I've never cooked it. Thank you for the recipe and clear instructions, today I will treat my family to a lordly dinner. By the way, considering the cost of buckwheat today, this is truly a merchant’s dish.
