PREPARATION 10 MINUTES
INGREDIENTS
- 1 package Genius Nuggets
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 70 g onion, chopped
- 500 g grated tomatoes (store-bought)
- 875 ml vegetable broth, hot
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp sweet paprika
- 1/2 tsp dried basil
- 1/2 tsp sugar
- 350 g coarse barley
nutritional yeast for serving (optional)
COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
- Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan and sauté the onion over medium heat for about 8 minutes or until soft.
- Add the tomato and 250 ml of broth, increase the heat, wait for it to boil and add the salt, paprika, basil and sugar. Stir, reduce the heat back to medium/low and simmer the sauce for 10 minutes.
- Increase the heat, add the barley and 625 ml of hot stock. Once it boils, reduce to medium/low and simmer for 20-25 minutes, stirring frequently. You want the food to absorb its juices but remain liquid as it will continue to solidify after cooking.
- While the barley is boiling, prepare the nuggets according to the package instructions. Serve with a little nutritional yeast if desired.
