What you’ll need

  • 1 cup toasted buckwheat groats / kasha
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 cups / 480 ml vegetable broth
  • 8 oz / 225 g bow-tie pasta
  • 2 large onions, sliced
  • 3 tbsp neutral oil
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp pepper

Contains: Wheat, egg.

Let’s make it

  1. Cook pasta according to the package and drain.
  2. Beat the egg and coat the dry kasha. Toast in a dry saucepan over medium heat, stirring, until the grains separate and the egg coating dries.
  3. Carefully add hot broth and ¼ tsp salt. Cover and cook on low about 15 minutes, until tender; check the package for timing and liquid needs.
  4. Meanwhile cook onions in oil over medium-low heat for 15–20 minutes until golden.
  5. Toss pasta, cooked kasha and onions together. Season with remaining salt and pepper.
