Num, Num, Num! This was my first time doing anything with kasha and this recipe turned out perfect!!! I halved the recipe but still used 1 egg and I used vegetable broth. This is tasty even without noodles. It tastes very "meaty" and am planning to try using it in Sheperd's Pie. I'll be sharing this with my friend who is allergic to gluten, I'm sure he will be delighted! Thanks a ton Chia

    I had this at my aunt's house and loved it. I couldn't remember what is what called for long time and actually I thought it was made with barley when I tried to look it up. I finally figured it out and tried this recipe. I unfortunately screwed and burned the onions slightly but I know that was my own fault and when I make it again it will be great!

    chia, chia, chia, this is a wonderful recipe. The only thing I changed was to use beef broth instead of the chicken. Delicious!!!! I also use medium grain kasha.
