- Pot Barley is healthy for you and a great variation to a fried rice. It’s tossed with sausage, bacon, chicken, potato, peppers and spinach and finished off with some soya sauce for that umami boost.

Ingredients
2 1/2 cups Pot Barley, soaked overnight and drained very well
1 potato diced in very small cubes
1 red onion finely chopped
3 - 4 sausages cut in small cubes
3 -4 rashers of bacon(I used Turkey) cut fine
1 green pepper cut into small dice
1 cup left over cooked chicken cut into small dice
2 cups fresh spinach roughly chopped
Salt
3 - 4 tbsps light soya sauce
Olive oil
Process
In a large non stick sauté pan, heat some Olive oil and cook the potatoes first till golden brown
Add the onion and sauté till golden brown and follow with the sausage and bacon
Add the cooked chicken and green pepper
Cook for without stirring about 3 - 4 minutes at a time so the ingredients get a nice dark colour at the bottom
Depending on the size of your sauté pan, either take everything out to sauté the barley or make a well in the centre and let the barley caramelize a little bit
Mix together well and add the spinach which will wilt and cook in a few minutes
Add the soya, toss and serve!

Oh why am I watching it in the middle of the night! This look delicious
Daria Pavlova :) thank you!
Love your presenting style . It’s clear and concise. Thanks for posting this recipe.
So welcome! This is one of my favorites! I make it all the time!
Madam you are a very good teacher. You have put it in a such a simple form that's so easy to understand.
Thanks so much!!!!
Happy to see a recipe for barley which is not for soup! Will definitely try a vege version of this - thank you!
+Zehra Khoja so welcome!!!! Enjoy!!!
Zehra Khoja you can also make hundreds of casseroles featuring barley and some of the Savory casseroles are also good for breakfast! Being vegan I need to get protein at every meal and sometimes I get tired of oats or soy and make up a barley baked porridge or mushroom and onion barley bake. :-)
Looks delish! Going to make it tonight without the bacon or sausages just the chicken! Great recipe, clear instructions. Thanks for sharing.
+Deborah Sauls so very welcome! Enjoy!
I have got a jar of pearl barley sitting on my pantry shelf and I have no idea what to do with it till I saw your video. Gonna give this a try. I’m slowly substituting jasmine rice with brown rice and barley since jasmine rice makes me so bloated
This is one of my faves ... I make it often and typically with whatever I have in the fridge ... enjoy!
I love all types of grains, and will be trying this recipe. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you!!!!
I made this for dinner tonight and I really like it. I think I’m gonna cook this dish more often from now on. Thank you for sharing this recipe :))
So very welcome!!!!
Never seen something so healthy love it going to try god bless
It's awesome, I make it all the time, filling and tasty!
I like your way of presenting, Karen. It's clear, concise and interesting. Congratulations!
Thank you!
Thank you so much it looks yummy
Most welcome 😊
This looks delicious! do you prepare pearl barley the same way?
Yes I do!
Hello this looks really good! How many portion does this come out?
Hi Tingling! 4 - 6 portions easily as a main, more as a side!
I have a barley at home.
And saw your video. And i wanna try it.
How do you know qhen the barley is cooked?
Bite into it, it should not be hard but chewy.
This is very informative! This is going to be a side dish for spiral ham, just no meat added.
Sounds perfect!
It was! It started out as fried rice but I didn't have enough leftover rice so I cooked up some barley to add to it and it was terrific. I too loved using it for something other than soup!
Great sound track
Thanks so much!
Thank you for sharing your video
Thanks for watching!
Love it.❤Thankyou
You're welcome 😊
Delicious and Thank you.
No, thank you!
what is the right measurement of water for2&1/2cup of barely?? thanks;)
I just made this thing for breakfast: super. One important thing I've learned from this recipe was to caramelize the barley a bit. I'd never tried before, and its very tasty. A great nuance!
Yes, caramelizing it is the best part! Releases the nuttiness!
This looks delicious ! If I had to make a vegetarian version of this what can I add to substitute the meat ?
Hey Saurabh, you can just omit the meat, no substitution necessary ... maybe bump up the veggies? You can really personalize it!
Tofu, or fermented tofu. The latter is somewhat firm, and has a (vaguely) similar texture (to meat).
You can get it at Trader Joe, $1.99 a pack.
Try baked tempeh or tofu or both
Mushrooms and garlic
Hello from India! I am going to try this.
Hi Susan! Let me know how it turns out!
Kravings I will.
Fantastic! I also soak everything -- it shortens cooking time and you don't have to watch it while it's soaking (unlike during the cooking). I also add celery everywhere, and drizzle a tiny bit of toasted sesame oil over it when it's ready. It's not a "healthy" oil, but I like the taste, and a little bit won't kill ya! Lol. Oh yeah, and sunflower seeds. Don't cook them, of course. P.S. if you wanna get really scientific and make it a complete-protein meal, combine the barley with some lentils or mung beans. They are easy to cook, and are ready faster than barley, about as fast as , say, rice would be.
Also, with onions: I like to cook some and use some raw. So a keep like one third of my chopped onions and add them to the ready dish. It works with "dry" food. If it's liquid, they become soggy and there's no point, but this thing here is fine to add raw onions to.
+Bramble Q123 thanks so much! All great ideas!
+thanks! Bramble Q123 I'm not a fan of raw onions. Soaking them in water reduces their intense flavor
I know people who simply don't tolerate them. But, onions is one of those foods WNO lose nutritional value somewhat if cooked. They're still good for you, but not nearly as much as if eaten raw. Course, they taste very different too, raw and cooked. I lime fried onions because they get soft, slightly caramelized, drenched in oil and soy sauce: this is very savoury! Raw onions, otoh, are more healthful, sharper in taste (though less savoury), and add a nice crunch to the meal. That's why I use both on the same dish -- it's like two different products! Celery too, although its very bland raw, adds taste and crunch to cooked dishes. It is, however, also more nutritious raw. Carrots, otoh, are o er ten times more nutritious when cooked.
Thank you so much.
Thank you!!!
excellent idea!
Thank you!
And just like that I found a sweet healthy video
Hope you stop by more often!
Will do, I just tried it
Delicious recipe
Thank you!!!!
All they had at the store was Roasted Barley, so when I was ready to cook it, Ivfound on the back that it was for TEA! Can I cook it and eat this kind?
Hmmmm never heard of roasted barley ... can it be boiled?
@@KravingsFoodAdventures instructions were to bring to a boil then remove from stove to steep for 10 minutes before drinking.
@@Jillian1stJohn3-9-10 Hmmmm I don't think it's the same thing, it's used to make stout. I googled it and it says it can boiled and eaten so give it a try.
Thank you so much mam
Most welcome 😊
Quinoa is good to..
Em Davis I agree!
looks so good
Thank you!!!!
Hi please tell the substitute of sausage and bacon.
I'm using Turkey sausage & bacon. There is no pork
Kravings you assumed that she was asking due to her name something Islamic. I am vegan and my real first name is Hajar along with a married name of Ayaou. Those are Moroccan names and Morocco is an Islamic country but I would be asking as I am vegan. So for other vegans you can use Liquid Smoke and other crumbled or cubed tofu that has been marinated or plain you could also use TVP or small pieces of tempeh. All along with some liquid smoke.
Most of my confusion got cleared...thank you
Welcome!
Hello Mam how can i fine barley in europa ?

josehnie johnson awesome! Let me know how it turns out!

Good video thanks
Thank you!
mar vel ous,godbless***)
yummy
Thanks!
I love Iranian women's.they know the food.
Me too lol
nice
+gislain walker thanks so much!
I tried this, it was like kids food, dont want to make it again...also 2.5 cups of barley is way too much...its very heavy so this batch will sit in the freezer too long
I think 1 cup would also be too much for a young couple who typically eat the same meal twice. Im just disappointed by the sheer volume of this batch that i made using exact amounts from the recipe.
I’m sorry you didn’t like it. I’ve made it often and it’s never been too much. In saying it’s like kids food you may be right, kids love it as it looks like a fried rice. It is a complex carb and good for both kids and adults.
@@KravingsFoodAdventures now I feel a little bit better about it...complex carb sounds healthy :p yeah it could be enough for a family but way too much for me and hubby. Im definitely sticking to your channel and browsing for more recipes. good day to you ! :)
Same to you my dear!
Why all that mixed meat. Either 1 would be sufficient. Grose with a mixture of meats.
You can add one or two or none - totally up to you.
Looks great less the oil and the meats.
You can customize it anyway you like!
So? Isn’t this just fried rice?
Nope, it's a Barley Stir Fry. Could be a fried rice - just add rice.
Your hair! Fucking epic 😂
:) Thanks!
Looks and sounds good except for the sausages...I don't like sausages
+M Bens you can add and delete whatever you like. This recipe is perfect to be customized to your taste!
Waay to much meat!
You can always add less. It’s very customizable.
We feed dogs barley. I could not serve it to my guests since barley is considered pesants food.
+Joelleen Beangh Dogs are also fed Chicken. Doesn't mean the rest can't eat it too.
Kravings good one😄
Peasant food? You can't be serious. 🤣🤣🤣 Make room for the queen, everyone!
I love when people comment ignorant shit exposing how fucking stupid they are lol
Rashers of Turkey Bacon? what in the name of all that is holy is this?
Never heard of Chicken or Turkey bacon? It’s made to look like regular bacon, but a lot healthier. You can also use regular bacon.
Bacon is cured pork. Turkey Bacon is a misnomer.
It’s what they probably said about Turkey sausage when it first came out too. And Tofurkey.
