Ingredients

Step cooking

1. We collect water in a pan, put it on a gas or electric stove to boil. Next, put 3 chicken eggs in boiling water for about 7-8 minutes. We put the boiled eggs to cool in cold water.
   
2. We take 300 grams of buckwheat, sort it out, rinse and filter. Next, take a pan with a thick bottom, put it on the stove and put the washed buckwheat in there, frying for 4-5 minutes over medium heat. It is important to constantly stir it with a kitchen spatula so that buckwheat does not burn.
   
3. Then add 15-25 grams of butter and mix until completely dissolved.
   
4. Add 700 milliliters of boiling water to buckwheat, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, mix and cook for 15 minutes over medium heat.
   
5. While buckwheat is cooked, you can begin to clean the already cooled chicken eggs. We clean them and cut them into medium cubes with a knife.
   
6. We need about 30 grams of green onion, also chop it finely with a knife.
   
7. Take 1 medium onion, peel it and cut into half rings.
   
8. On the stove, heat the pan, pour a little sunflower oil into it and put the chopped onions and fry for about 7-8 minutes. Also do not forget to salt it a little.
   
9. In the finished buckwheat, add the fried and green onions with eggs and mix thoroughly.
   
10. The dish is ready, you can serve it to the table. Enjoy your meal!
    

Tips

• Buckwheat can be used as an independent dish and with a side dish. Chicken, beef, mushrooms and various vegetables are perfect for this.
• Children can add sugar to buckwheat or pour warm milk and eat like milk porridge. Tasty and healthy.
• Buckwheat porridge is always boiled in 1x2 proportions, that is, 1 cup of buckwheat needs 2 cups of water or milk. Remember that cereal volume doubles during cooking.
• If you have little time to prepare buckwheat porridge, then soak it in water for several hours, before washing. In such a simple way, you can reduce the cooking time by 2 times.
• To ensure that steam builds up and holds inside, always use a pan with a thick bottom.
• No need to interfere with buckwheat during cooking, so you reduce the level of steam inside the pan and increase the cooking time.
