Baked Buckwheat with Feta Cheese, Flax and Sesame

Delicious and healthy buckwheat in the oven, baked with feta cheese, flax, and sesame seeds. My husband, who does not really like buckwheat, ate it with pleasure! By the way, such a dish is a great way to use the leftover buckwheat porridge.

Ingredients

• Buckwheat – 100 g (or 250 g of boiled buckwheat)
• Bryndza – 250 g
• Flax seeds – 2 tbsp
• Sesame (seeds) – 2 tbsp
• Bulb onions – 1 pc.
• Butter – 2 tbsp + 1 teaspoon for greasing the mold
• Egg – 1 pc.
• Salt – 1 teaspoon

Directions

1. Let’s prepare the necessary ingredients. First, let’s boil buckwheat. The proportion of buckwheat and water: 1: 2, respectively. Since 100 g of buckwheat is half a glass, then we need 1 glass of water for cooking. Pour water into a saucepan and set it on fire.
2. Meanwhile, we carefully sort out the buckwheat from black grains and rinse.
3. Pour buckwheat into boiling water and add 0.5 teaspoons of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. If foam forms, you can remove it with a slotted spoon. Then we reduce the heat, cover with a lid, and cook buckwheat for 10-15 minutes.
4. Turn off the heat and let the buckwheat brew for a few more minutes under the lid. The buckwheat porridge is ready. Cut the onion into quarters.
5. Melt the butter in a frying pan, put the onion there, and add 0.5 teaspoons of salt.
6. Fry the onion until golden brown. Crumbled cheese by hand.
7. Add the fried onion and egg to the cheese. Mix well. Add feta cheese with onion and egg to buckwheat.

   

8. Add 2/3 of flax and sesame seeds there. Mix everything thoroughly. We try it for salt and, if necessary, add some salt, it all depends on how salty the feta cheese is.

   

9. We turn on the oven to heat up to 180 degrees. Lubricate a baking dish with butter. We spread the resulting mass into a mold, tamp it a little with a spoon.
10. Sprinkle with the remaining flax and sesame seeds on top. We bake buckwheat porridge in the oven for 20-25 minutes.
11. Baked buckwheat with feta cheese, flax, and sesame seeds can be served as a side dish for a meat dish or as a main course with a vegetable salad.
