Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • About 1 lb. peeled and seeded sugar pie pumpkin, cut into 3/4-inch cubes
  • 1 yellow onion, finely diced
  • 1 cup coarse bulgur
  • Salt, to taste
  • 2 Tbs. golden raisins
  • 1 Tbs. sugar
  • 1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp. chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Instructions

  • In a heavy fry pan over medium-high heat, warm the olive oil. Add the pumpkin and onion and sauté until tender and golden brown, about 8 minutes. Add the bulgur and 1 1/2 cups water, season with salt, and increase the heat to high. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat so the mixture simmers, cover tightly, and cook until the bulgur is tender and the water is absorbed, about 15 minutes.
  • Stir in the raisins, sugar and cinnamon, and season with salt. Let stand for 5 minutes. Stir in the parsley and serve immediately. Serves 4.
