In the original, the porridge was called "Kostroma barley with peas" and was found by chance on a stupid search in Yandex for recipes of all kinds of cereals.
here is the original recipe:
Ingredients:
* 1 1/2 cups barley grits
* 2 l of water
* 1/2 cup peas
* 1 head of onion
* 1 tbsp. spoons of thyme or savory
* 3 tbsp. tablespoons of butter or sunflower oil
* 1 tsp salt
Method of preparation: Rinse the barley in several waters and boil in salted water for 15-20 minutes (from the moment of boiling) over moderate heat, be sure to remove the foam formed from above, then drain the excess, freely separating water.
Add peas soaked and boiled in water, finely chopped onion and continue to cook over low heat until the porridge is completely softened. Season with oil, thyme, stir, boil for about 5 minutes.
But my peas were not soaked or cooked, I was not going to drain the excess water, especially since I was cooking in a multicooker.
In general, my recipe became like this (glasses are all cartoon):
1 1/2 cups barley grits
4 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup red lentils (red because they were open)
1 head of onion
1 tsp two types of Adyghe salt (in general composition: salt, garlic, coriander, ground black pepper, hops-suneli, paprika, thyme, utskho-suneli, savory, baselik, marjoram, celery)
3 tbsp. l. butter.
Rinse the groats, rinse the lentils, finely chop the onion, put everything in a MV saucepan, add salt, pour water (I poured cold water), stir. Buckwheat program.
After picking, add oil, stir and leave on the heat for 5-10 minutes. The photo was taken just after mixing the oil. Lentils were not visible at all. The consistency is not quite crumbly, but also not viscous - something in the middle. The smell is strange, but tasty - the porridge smells like homemade dumplings - it seemed to me so (in general, saliva is released). I licked the spoon - delicious! This is how it turned out
