Ingredients

1 cup Fine Egg Noodles
1/2 cup Coarse Bulgar #3
3 tbsp. Butter
1 cup Chicken Stock
2 tsp. Salt
4 oz. Water

Instructions

Start by melting the butter in a large pot over medium heat.
Take the egg noodles and crush them over the pot to make them a bit smaller. Add them to the melted butter. Stir with a wooden spoon or spatula until they're golden brown and smell fragrant.
Add in the bulgur wheat over the browned egg noodles. Add in the salt and pour in the chicken stock and water, then cover with a lid.
Reduce the heat to low and let it cook until the liquid is fully evaporated. This is about 25-30 minutes. The liquid should be gone and the bulgur wheat will be tender.
Remove from the heat and fluff with a fork before serving.

Notes

If the liquid fully evaporates but the bulgur wheat is still under cooked, add a splash of water in and allow it to cook until tender. You can also remove it from the heat and allow it to rest and let the residual heat finish cooking it through as needed.
