Method

  1. Sort and rinse the buckwheat and toast it in a dry frying pan for 2–3 minutes.

  2. Dice the onion and grate the carrot on a coarse grater.

  3. Fry the onion and carrot in sunflower oil for 4 minutes, add the ground beef and fry for 7 minutes, breaking up the lumps.

  4. Add the tomato paste, salt and pepper, stir and heat for a minute.

  5. Add the buckwheat, pour in 400 ml of hot water so it covers the grain by 1–1.5 cm, and bring to a boil.

  6. Cover with a lid and simmer over low heat for 15–20 minutes, adding the chopped garlic at the end and letting it rest for 5 minutes.
