Cooking method

• My husband is a great lover of cereals, I dedicate this recipe to him (a real colonel in reserve) and other defenders of the Fatherland.
• The day begins with porridge, I believe that "as you burst, you will sink." Hearty porridge gives a boost of vivacity for a whole day at work.
• I accidentally found a mention of Suvorov porridge in the internet, she really interested me. In addition, modern nutritional science has confirmed that porridge made from a mixture of cereals is healthier than from one, since each cereal has its own chemical composition, and the more cereals are used in the mixture, the higher the nutritional value of the porridge. And for more than 2 years now, sometimes this porridge appears on our table.
• I make porridge when in a cast iron, when in a saucepan, and I will give a description for a multicooker. There is practically no difference.
• Let's start cooking, the porridge does not cook quickly and I start cooking in the evening.
• 
• Mix the peas and pearl barley, wash and pour cold water for at least 1 hour, I did this from evening to night.
• 
• In the morning (or after an hour), boil water and rinse the millet with boiling water, I rinse it with boiling water three times to remove the specific rancidity in its taste.
• Drain the water from the peas and pearl barley.
• Put all the cereals and peas in a slow cooker, pour the "mixture" with 500 ml of hot boiling water, if you want a thinner then 600 ml, salt to taste. Switch on the "Rice-Groats" program for 1 hour.
• 
• While the groats are boiling, 20 minutes before the end of the program, cut the onion into half or quarter rings, grate the carrots on a coarse grater.
• Preheat a frying pan, lay out thinly sliced ​​pieces of bacon and let them "release" the fat, frying on both sides.
• 
• Put the onion in a frying pan and bring it to transparency.
• 
• Put the carrots in the pan and fry together with the onions for a while, you don't need to overcook too much,
• 
• Pour the frying together with the cracklings into the porridge immediately after the signal about the end of the program and keep it on "Heat" for some time, for me it is not less than half an hour.
• 
• For the aroma of the fire, I add a little smoked paprika, the taste is extraordinary. Very tasty and very satisfying. After such a porridge and a short rest, it is just right to paddle snow, or chop wood, or mow grass in summer - this porridge gives an excellent boost of vivacity and strength.
• Cook and eat to your health.

Note

There is either a legend, or a description of real events about Suvorov porridge, the story is described in different ways. I will give two descriptions of the history of the occurrence of Suvorov porridge, but they are very similar - the essence is the same, almost porridge from the "ax".

"In 1799, the Russian army, led by Alexander Vasilyevich Suvorov, made the most difficult crossing of the Alps with its troops. The Devil's Bridge took away the last strength of the soldiers. The soldiers, one after another, were dying of fatigue, cold, and most importantly hunger. The old man was commander-in-chief, and Suvorov then he was 70 years old - all night did not sleep a wink, trying to find a way out of a seemingly hopeless situation. He knew the "science of victory" well, but had no idea how to feed a hungry twenty thousandth army and fourteen thousand captive French.
In the morning, the field marshal found a solution. He ordered to collect the rest of the food from the soldiers and cook porridge in a common cauldron, no matter how weird it turns out to be.
- Tell the soldiers that I do not order, I ask.
What was not in this porridge: onions, millet, carrots, pearl barley, peas and much more. The resulting dish was satisfying, and most importantly hot. In honor of the creator, the porridge was named "Suvorovskaya". "

"Once (the year is not mentioned), in one of the military campaigns, Suvorov was told that there were small reserves of barley, millet, peas. If you cook porridge from one type of cereal, then there is not enough for everyone. Then Suvorov ordered to mix both cereals and peas and cook food for everyone. The soldiers liked the Suvorov porridge. So the great commander made his contribution to the development of cooking. "

In general, everything is simply prepared, made in a multicooker, it is easiest in it. But I also did it in a pot in the stove. My husband starts every morning with porridge, it's great when the men in the family love porridge, and our son also loves porridge! This, of course, is not a porridge for every day, but from time to time our defenders - lovers of porridge, it is even possible to cook it, I myself gladly join my husband in the morning meal with Suvorov porridge. But after that, it is better to work hard physically, satiety and energy are provided before trouble.
Bon appetit, everyone, cook and eat to your health!

[Ludmila]

Ludmila, Thank you Looks very appetizing

[Luda]

A very interesting version of barley porridge with frying Luda, Thank you!

[WLAD]

WLAD, help yourself, it’s still hot, very tasty, I’m sitting and eating myself, smoked paprika added flavor, but it’s delicious without it, I added it for the first time today. By the way, you can add a little garlic, but if you don't need to go out to people later
Tanechka, she's not just pearl barley and so mixed, very tasty.!

Lyudochka, what an interesting porridge. And for the story - thanks

[Svetochka]

Svetochka, it was interesting to know myself, but how I did it for the first time, so I repeat from time to time

[Lyudochka]

Lyudochka, as a side dish, I hope it will also be bookmarked My husband and I only eat porridge. The youngest child stayed with us until he finished school. But in the morning he does not want to eat porridge in any way. Probably late realized: the child is already 16

Luda, where do you buy smoked paprika? Did I see something in the stores, or was it just bad looking?

[Galina]

Galina, I bought a large jar in Ozone, like this:

There are different in ozone, look, having scored "smoked paprika" in the search line

Thank you, you have to look!

[Mandraik Ludmila]

Mandraik Ludmilawhat an interesting porridge with history! And it looks like smoked paprika rules this season!

[Irochka]

Irochka, with your light hand, I will now add it to cutlets

[Mandraik Ludmila]

Mandraik Ludmila, and in cutlets, and in vegetable preparations such as eggplant or zucchini caviar, and in matbuha, and in soups "goulash". It's a good seasoning. But about the mess - I did not even think in this direction. Now I will definitely try too!

Oh, what a mess !! I didn't think of mixing cereals in such a porridge !! I love pea and millet in this style! Thanks for the idea, I'll try this option too !!

Try it, my dears, it's really very tasty.I thought today to have a dietary breakfast with cottage cheese, because such an aroma, I ate a portion of porridge, decided, okay - I'll work it out, I need to walk a lot today
Here it is better not to pour paprika, otherwise the taste of porridge can go into smoked meats, no more than about 5 teaspoon, or even 0.25 tsp.

[Lyudochka]

Lyudochka, the recipe is class, but there is no one to eat

[Buttercup]

Buttercup, there is everything except peas.
I will buy, I will definitely try

[Ludmila]

Interesting porridge. I often stir up cereals, but I didn’t add peas to them, but also fry ... I’ll do it.
Ludmila, Thank you!

Girls, boys, if you remove fat (butter-lard) from the recipe, you get a very dietary porridge, with a low glycemic index

[Mandraik Ludmila]

Mandraik Ludmila,
Lyudochka, you brought us a very good and delicious recipe. Everything is available, but how can I accustom my husband to porridge (even though he, like yours, too, is a real reserve colonel, and even a Suvorovite). He doesn’t eat them and that’s all. It is necessary to do yours, Suvorov’s, let the current say something against

[Alexandra]

Alexandra, and you offer him for dinner in the form of a side dish, such porridge is good for a side dish, only then pour no more than 500 ml of water, maybe even 450 ml, it will be less boiled

[Mandraik Ludmila]

Mandraik Ludmila,
Thank you very much for the recipe.
Today I cooked porridge just in time for February 23rd.
Everyone really liked the porridge!
This is for you



Yes, I was looking for smoked paprika yesterday.
As a result, I found it in the Metro, maybe someone will come in handy.

[Svetlana]

Svetlana, thank you more for your attention and preparation, I am very pleased

The porridge is really tasty, and it seems to me that even "non-lovers" of cereals might like it, peas greatly affect the taste, and fried vegetables give the same taste. I added smoked paprika for the first time when I was preparing for a "photo shoot" for the competition, I liked it, but it seems to me that it is important not to shift it, otherwise the smoked taste "will overwhelm" the specific "mushy-pea" taste and the taste will go into the "soup pea with smoked meats"

[Buttercup]

Buttercup, but is it possible to use serum instead of water?
And then there is a lot of it

[Daria]

Daria, I don’t know In principle, pearl barley is soaked in whey to soften it, try it, if only it was not sour. Write down what happens, the benefits will definitely increase. But then onions and carrots are better for plums. fry in oil to combine better products.

And I'm just frying on a creamy
I was afraid that my son might not like the new dish, and even with cracklings
And the whey from cheese is not sour.
Unsubscribe!

[Daria]

Daria, waiting for the results

So I tried it and today I mix cereals and peas, I never thought that it would be very, very edible

There was - a back from homemade chicken, dried carrots, onions, bell peppers, eggplants, a couple of pinches each, a glass of 200 ml of peas, a glass of pearl barley, a Panasonic multicooker, water at max, salt, seasonings, stewed for 8 hours.
Everything is cooked, melted, thick, but not cool, there is a little broth. Probably tomorrow it will not be, it will be completely absorbed.

Liked. I will cook. Peas "covered" the pearl barley, which is good, otherwise men don't want to eat such useful cereals, and there are always no millet peas, probably it will be superfluous for us.
Since nothing is fried, and the back of the chicken is not greasy, but the taste is chicken-chicken, then the porridge turned out to be so "soft" to the taste, I like it, and I cook all the soups without fries anyway.

[Irsha]

IrshaWell done! Porridge turned out based on. Peas really masks the taste "flaws" of other cereals

[Mandraik Ludmila]

Mandraik Ludmila, Buttercup, thanks for the recipe Today I prepared exactly according to the recipe, I bought paprika on purpose. I cooked in Panasonic on stewing for 1 hour, everything was prepared, I really liked it! They ate as a side dish. Thank you!

[IrVas]

IrVas, I am very happy! Thank you for the report In principle, you can do without paprika, but it tastes better with it

Oh, it was delicious to me! Straight with cutlets
I will definitely write down the recipe for myself.
Serum is good (but I don’t know how it happens with water). But 450 ml turned out to be not enough, probably, I measured the cereal poorly, more than 100 ml. Here it is necessary to look, of course, in fact.
And it is imperative that the porridge stand and sweat.
Thank you, the new side dish recipe comes in handy

[Daria]

Daria, did you soak? Indeed, even at the stage of soaking, peas and cereals collect water, I do not take this into account in the specified amount of water in the recipe

I think it is quite possible to use corn grits instead of millet, it will be necessary to do it next time with corn

Yes, soaked in the morning. And millet too
But I could measure just above the 100 ml line. It's not weight, but volume by eye ...

and the volume by eye ...

Yes, there are parts equal in volume, not in weight So I subtracted in the tyrnet

Peas accept other cereals well.
Sometimes, when I cook pea thick soup, and I see that the density is not sufficient, then at the end of cooking I add any cereal flakes "Tsar"

and the pea taste softens and the peas do not need to be cooked until they are completely decomposed, the flakes will pleasantly thicken the soup.

[Ira]

Ira, I have not seen such "royal" 5 cereals, but the idea is clear. I completely agree with you, although peas are not cereals, they are a very "mushy" product and go well with almost any cereals, although I would not interfere with it separately with buckwheat

[Buttercup]

Buttercup, Luda, thanks for the unusual version of the porridge! I cook rice and millet with pumpkin, but I didn't think of adding peas there. I will definitely try, especially now Post.
thanks for the story!

[Marina]

Marina, the porridge is tasty and healthy, you can generally make a dietary option, do not fry the onions and carrots in oil, but put them in the porridge in the middle of cooking. I am very pleased that the recipe interested

Yes, Lyuda, I'll cook it like that, a week without oil, we clean the organisms. Thank you!

Svetlana, we are with marika33 agreed to just throw vegetables in the middle of cooking time and no butter!
Thank you for your support dear!

[Buttercup]

Buttercup, so I will do this option. I read it and immediately noted it for myself.

[Svetochka]

Svetochka, so porridge is almost dietary, all cereals with a low glycemic index, and in combination with peas, which is like a protein, the index decreases even

We cheer for you and Vlad
