CHEF FLOWER'S CRACKED WHEAT PILAF - KIBRISLI BULGUR PILAVI
This is one of my mother's recipe, she was born in Cyprus and this recipe has been passed on to her by her mother. It's a quick side dish. My mother has a few recipes using bulgur, but she prepared this one regularly when I was living at home. You could serve it with a scope of plain yoghurt.
