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.

Barley pilaf with herbs

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

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 Salad With Almonds And Apricots

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

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!

This is great for a party, with interesting textures and flavours combined in one delicious salad. Feel free to use vegetable stock if you want to make this a vegan dish. Leftovers store well refrigerated for several days.

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.

Bulgur wheat pilaf with nuts and seeds

Although high in fat, nuts and seeds are extremely nutritious, and just a handful gives a satisfying crunch to this pilaf.

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.

Cheesy Quinoa Pilaf with Spinach

Recipe by: alliecat3

Be the first to review it!

This creamy pilaf incorporates the fluffy, nutty-flavoured grain, quinoa, with a decadent and delicious hard goat cheese. This has an amazing flavour and texture. Try serving with steamed salmon. I think this would work well with pine nuts as well as a variety of other cheeses.
