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.

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.

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.

Bulghur wheat salad with lamb

Recipe by: Azmina Govindji

Be the first to review it!

For this tasty dish, tender lamb fillet is quickly cooked under the grill, then cut up and mixed into a salad of bulghur wheat, red pepper, green olives and fresh mint. No oil is used to dress the salad, just fresh lemon and orange juices, so the fat content is kept healthily low.

The tartness of lemon juice plus the refreshing fragrance of mint make this a dish that will brighten any meal. Bulghur is a form of cracked wheat that cooks fast and easily.

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.

Couscous and flageolet niçoise

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

This is a bright, cheery salad with a real Mediterranean feel and flavour. Couscous is mixed with pale green flageolet beans, then tossed with fresh green beans, tomatoes and cucumber in a piquant dressing made with sun-dried tomatoes. Serve as a main course for a delightful summer lunch.

Couscous Casablanca

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.

Grilled Polenta with Spicy Sausage and Veg Sauce

Recipe by: SPICYGIRL

Be the first to review it!

Shop bought polenta with an easy sauce. We prefer a spicy Italian sausage to give it some more kick, but you can also use regular sausage. This will serve 4 to 6 people.

Grilled Mediterranean vegetables, combined with plump olives and a chilli, garlic and lemon dressing, make an exciting topping for ready-made polenta. Arrange on a wide platter for maximum table-top impact.

Israeli couscous with asparagus

Recipe by: Diana

Be the first to review it!

This is so yummy and versatile; I came up with it during asparagus season, because I love those M&S salads with Israeli couscous. You can eat this as a salad for lunch, or it could also be a side. This makes 2 hearty lunch sized salads or 4 side dishes.

Lamb, butternut and barley stew

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Reviews(1)

Like Irish stew and Lancashire hotpot, this hearty dish is made with good-quality lamb, plus lots of vegetables, pearl barley, and bay leaves and thyme for flavouring. It is simple to make, and comes out of the oven smelling and tasting absolutely wonderful. Serve with purple sprouting broccoli or curly kale and baked potatoes.
