Savory Bulgur with Sautéd Ground Beef & Carmelized Onions ( Kiymali Simit Asi)

February 14, 2018 by eeturner 2 Comments

Similar to the Sade Simit Asi recipe, the main difference between them is that this recipe has caramelized onions and ground beef on top. It’s a little bit more hearty and it’s delicious!

Here’s the recipe:

Kiymali Simit Asi
1/2 lb ground beef
3.5 c simit bulgur (finely ground bulgur)
1 large onion (diced)
1 1/4 c tomato paste
2 TBSP sunflower oil
2 TBSP olive oil
2 TBSP red pepper flakes
salt & pepper (to taste)
Preparation:
Sauté the ground beef and set aside.
In a small frying pan, sauté the onion in the olive oil and sunflower oil for 3-5 minutes. Add 1 TBSP of red pepper flakes and set aside.
Then in a large stock pot, add the tomato paste, 1 TBSP of red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Stir well.
Then pour in the bulgur and 6-7 cups of hot water.

Stir until well combined and simmer on medium heat for 10-15 minutes, adding more water as needed.
To serve, plate the cooked bulgur, then top with the onions and then the ground beef.
Enjoy!

Afiyet Olsun!
