Ash-e-jow (Persian Barley Soup)

Recipe by: Autumn Leaves

Be the first to review it!

I've seen a lot of recipes for this soup; however, my mum-in-law adds tomato puree for a bit of a different flavour and she doesn't add any lentils or beans. It's thick, filling and delicious, and you could make it vegetarian by using vegetable stock.

A simple, hearty and tasty vegetarian dish. Good as a light main, side, or wrapped in a flour tortilla with cheese. I always make a double batch and freeze some.

This barley risotto is delicious, healthy and filling. It makes a nice side dish for steak or roasted meats, and also works as a starter or light main - especially when you want to serve something a little different.

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Like rice, barley can be cooked as fluffy, separate kernels, or made risotto-style, as in this delicious dish – gently and steadily stirred with liquid to produce a smooth, creamy texture.

Barley, black bean and avocado salad

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

We think of barley as a soup ingredient, but it's also a delicious main-dish grain, served hot or cold. When combined with black beans, tomato and avocado, it adds up to a salad that could hardly be more healthy or delicious.

Basic Polenta

Recipe by: IDAJ

Reviews(4)

This recipe is for the polenta novice. Two ingredients - polenta and water. So if you can boil water...you can make a delicious pot of polenta every time! There are many options for polenta once it is cooked: you can mix in fresh herbs and cheeses, bake with vegetables, or fry it. Experiment and choose your favourite accompaniment!

Broccoli and pearl barley salad

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

Pearl barley, with its nutty flavour and firm texture, makes an interesting change from rice in grain-based salads, and it blends beautifully with this mixture of vegetables, sweet dried apricots and pumpkin seeds. Serve this as a satisfying lunch dish, adding some crumbled cheese such as feta for additional protein.

Bulghur and Vegetable Stew

Recipe by: GEKKO

Be the first to review it!

The Parmesan is optional but I think it adds a needed finishing touch to the dish. You can substitute cauliflower for the red cabbage. Either way, this recipe is bursting with colour and flavour.

Butternut Squash and Barley Risotto

Recipe by: moonpig

Be the first to review it!

Well given food prices are rocketing I tried using barley instead of Arborio rice. It was a success, filling, healthy and still really yummy! NOTE: This is very filling and quite rich in flavour. So I sometimes serve half portions with some nice green beans or other summer Veg/green salad. It keeps in the refrigerator great in an air tight container or ziplock bag. It tastes great the next day cold or re-heated and so we take the leftovers for filling lunch at work.

Couscous Casablanca

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

A hearty veggie stew with couscous. Couscous is the staple food of much of North Africa, where it is often served topped with tender, colourful vegetables, drenched in delicious gravy and spiced with a traditional hot chilli sauce called harissa.

Couscous pilaf with tahini yogurt

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

This vegetable-rich couscous is lower in fat than most pilafs and it makes a marvellous, healthy main dish, or an excellent side dish for almost any simply cooked meat or poultry, when it will serve 8 or more. Any leftovers can be used as a delicious stuffing for chicken or other poultry or game birds.

Couscous salad with oranges and dates

Recipe by: Maggie Pannell

Be the first to review it!

Couscous makes a brilliant base for a quick salad, as it only needs a brief soaking in hot stock (or water). Here it is combined with chickpeas, dates, oranges and pistachios for a Middle Eastern-style vegetarian dish.
