Bulgur with Curried Potatoes and Peas Recipe

Bulgur with Curried Potatoes and Peas

Serves 6

Most often used to make tabbouleh, a Middle Eastern salad, bulgur is a form of whole wheat that has been precooked, dried, and ground. Curry powders can vary in spiciness, so feel free to use more or less according to your taste.

¾ cup bulgur
2 medium red potatoes, diced (2 cups)
2 Tbs. minced fresh ginger
1 Tbs. red curry powder
1 cup frozen peas

1. Bring 11/2 cups water to a boil in medium saucepan. Add bulgur; season with salt, if desired. Remove from heat, cover, and let stand 30 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, coat large nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Heat over medium-high heat, and add potatoes. Cook 12 to 13 minutes, or until beginning to brown. Stir in ginger and curry powder, and cook 3 minutes more. Stir in frozen peas, and cook 2 minutes more, or until heated through. Toss potato mixture with bulgur in large serving bowl. Season with salt and pepper, if desired.
