Buckwheat Cereal with Mushrooms and Onions

The cook timing on this is perfect. I used some shortcuts such as pre-prepped mirepoix and sliced shiitake. I also amped up the umami by using black truffle oil, chicken stock, and smoked sea salt. Overall it was fantastic. I had not had groats before but I loved the texture and will definitely give it a repeat. Next time I will use miso broth.

Quick and easy and the mushrooms make it taste really meaty!

No need to rinse the buckwheat before pan frying. Cook until golden in the butter (or olive oil) in the pot and add the cooked vegetable mixture. Garlic cooked with the onion adds additional flavour.
