Scheherazade Casserole Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
1 cup raw bulgur
1 cup boiling water
1 tbsp olive oil
2 cup minced onion
3 large cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp cumin
1 1/2 tsp basil
1 black pepper & cayenne
1 large green pepper, diced
3/4 cup dry soybeans, soaked 4 hours
1 14 oz. can tomatoes, drained
3 tbsp tomato paste-half 7 oz. can
1/2 cup finely minced parsley
1 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
Recipe Preparation
Preheat oven to 375 F. Lightly oil a 9x13 inch baking pan. Place the
bulgur in a small bowl. Add boiling water, cover with a plate, and
let stand at least 15 minutes. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a
large skillet. Add onion, garlic, salt and seasonings. Stir
occasionally as you saute over medium heat for 5 to 8 minutes. Add
green pepper and saute about 5 minutes more. Drain the soybeans, if
necessary, and place them in a blender or food processor with 1 cup
fresh water. Grind until the soybeans resemble a coarse batter.
Transfer to a large bowl. Add the soaked bulgur and sauteed
vegetables to the soybeans. Stir in the tomatoes, breaking them up
into bite-sized pieces. Add tomato paste, parsley and 1 cup of the
feta. Mix well. Spread into the baking pan and sprinkle the remaining
feta on top. Cover and bake for 30 minutes at 375 F., then uncover
and bake 15 minutes more with the oven turned down to 350 F. Serve
hot.
