👨‍🍳 作り方

1
Rinse buckwheat groats under cold water. Set aside.
2
In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt butter or heat oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
3
Add minced garlic and sliced mushrooms to the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms release their liquid and start to brown, about 8-10 minutes.
4
Stir in the rinsed buckwheat groats and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until buckwheat is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid.
5
Stir in the sour cream or heavy cream. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Heat through gently, but do not boil.
6
Serve hot, garnished with fresh chopped dill.
