מרכיבים
  • For the barley:
  • 1 cup wheat barley
  • 2 and a ½ cups water
  • a handful of pecans
  • a handful of dried cranberries
  • a handful of olives
  • 1 bunch scallion
  • ½ ts salt
  • For the gravy:
  • 2 tbs olive oil
  • 2 tbs balsamic vinegar
  • 1 ts mustard
  • 1 ts date syrup or pomegranate molasses
הוראות הכנה
  1. Put the wheat barley (1 cup) with the water (2½ cups) in a pot and bring to a boil, add the salt, reduce the heat to medium and keep cooking until all water is absorbed (about 20 minutes). Keep aside in a bowl, or in the fridge if preparing for take away. Note that the wheat barley tend to be quiet sticky and create lumps, but that's fine, simply crumble them with a fork when ready to eat then mix with the gravy.
  2. Cut the olives, the scallions and the pecans, and add them as well as the dried cranberries to the bowl with the cooked wheat barley, and mix gently.
  3. Prepare the gravy: place the olive oil (2 tbs), balsamic vinegar (2 tbs), mustard (1 ts), and date syrup/pomegranate molasses (1 ts) in a jar, close the lid and mix until combined.
  4. When ready to eat, pour the gravy on the salad and mix to combine.
