Yield Serves 4 (3 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup chopped red onion
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup coarse (#3) bulgur
1 teaspoon dried Aleppo chile flakes or 1/2 teaspoon other dried hot red pepper flakes, or to taste
1 large ripe tomato, grated (see cook's note)
1 teaspoon sugar
2 cups water or chicken or vegetable broth
1 cup crumbled feta (5 ounces)
Garnish: chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Cook onion in oil in a 2-quart saucepan over moderate heat until softened. Stir in bulgur and chile flakes until coated. Add tomato, sugar, and water and bring to a boil. Simmer, covered, until bulgur is tender and creamy (like risotto), about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, 3 minutes. Stir in 1/2 cup feta and season with salt. Top with remaining cup feta.
