Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make mushrooms with buckwheat in a frying pan? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. Buy fresh champignons of medium size, snow-white color without spots, damage, or rotten smell. They should not feel slippery to the touch. Instead of champignons, you can use any mushrooms. Just keep in mind that some of them need to be boiled first. Boil the water; you will need it hot.

Step 2

Step 2
Rinse the mushrooms from soil, cut out damaged areas, if any. Remove films from large mushrooms. Then place them on a kitchen towel to absorb excess liquid, then roughly chop. I had large champignons, I cut them along the stem into 6 pieces. This way the taste and shape of the mushrooms will be better preserved. Heat a frying pan with vegetable oil, place mushrooms on it and fry them over high heat until light golden brown.

Step 3

Step 3
Peel the carrots, rinse and cut into strips. This cutting will retain the shape of the carrots in the finished dish. Add the carrots to the mushrooms and fry for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 4

Step 4
Peel the onion, rinse and cut into thin half rings. This way it will cook quickly and retain its shape. Transfer the onion to the pan, stir and fry over medium heat until soft.

Step 5

Step 5
Salt and pepper the mushrooms and vegetables.

Step 6

Step 6
Sort the buckwheat, rinse thoroughly until the water is clear and place in a frying pan. Reduce heat, stir well and leave for 2-3 minutes.

Step 7

Step 7
Peel the garlic, rinse and cut along the clove into 4 pieces. Carefully pour 2 cups of hot water into the pan, arrange the garlic pieces evenly, cover with a lid and simmer over medium heat for about 15-20 minutes until the buckwheat has absorbed all the water. There is no need to stir the buckwheat.

Step 8

Step 8
If the buckwheat is already ready, and the liquid has not yet completely evaporated, remove the lid. If there is no liquid, feel free to remove the pan from the heat. Cover with a lid and leave to brew for 10-15 minutes.
