Recipe - Bulgur Pilaf With Pine Nuts

1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
1 Clove (large) garlic; minced
2 tablespoon Pine nuts
One half cup Bulgur; or cracked wheat
1 cup Meat stock
Salt and pepper

Melt butter in medium pot. Saute garlic and nuts over low heat for 3 to 5
minutes, until nuts are lightly browned.

Add bulgur and cook, stirring, for 1 to 2 minutes or until the grains are
well coated with the butter. Add the broth and turn heat up to high. Stir
once. When mixture begins to boil, reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer
for 12 to 15 minutes (see note). Season.

Note if you are using instant or quickcooking bulgur, follow directions
on box.

Variations: Add raisins, and or onions. Add chopped dates. Mix bulgur with
small pasta, like orzo. Use beef broth for a strong flavor, chicken for a
milder flavor. Add minced carrots and celery.
