Farro or Bulgur With Black-Eyed Peas, Chard and Feta image

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, lunch, main course

Time 1h

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound black-eyed peas
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
3 large garlic cloves, minced
1 to 2 serrano peppers, minced (optional)
1 bay leaf
Salt to taste
1 bunch Swiss chard (about 1 pound), stemmed, leaves washed in two changes of water, stems diced if wide and fleshy, discarded if thin and stringy
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill or cilantro
Freshly ground pepper to taste
3 cups cooked farro or bulgur
1 red pepper, cut in small dice, for topping
2 ounces feta, crumbled

Steps:

  • Rinse the beans and pick over to check for stones. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium heat in a large, heavy soup pot or Dutch oven and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes, and add half the garlic and the chiles. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute, and add the black-eyed peas, 2 quarts water and the bay leaf. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, and skim off any foam that rises. Cover and simmer 30 minutes.
  • Add salt to taste and the remaining garlic. A handful at a time, stir in the chard. As the greens wilt, stir in another handful, until all the greens have been added. Bring back to a simmer, cover and simmer over low heat for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the greens and beans are tender.
  • Stir in the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and the dill or cilantro, cover and continue to simmer for another 5 minutes. Add salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.
  • Spoon farro or bulgur into bowls or onto plates. Top with the beans. Top the beans with diced red pepper and crumbled feta, and serve.
