Cooking buckwheat in a Polaris multivac

Buckwheat can be cooked not only with water and milk, but also with broth. This will make the cereal more juicy and flavorful.

So, let's cook buckwheat in the Polaris slow cooker.

Wash the kernels, remove debris and black grains. Put the buckwheat in a saucepan. Pour in the required amount of water or broth, add spices and salt if necessary. Be sure to add a piece of butter and turn on the “buckwheat/rice/cereals” function.

The indicated amount of water assumes the cereal is boiled and very tender; if you like firmer kernels, you need to pour less water or broth.

The automatic cooking time for porridge will allow you to go about your business and only after a beep, look into the kitchen to put the porridge on plates and call everyone to the table.

This buckwheat porridge can be cooked in a slow cooker with dried fruits; in this case, add very little salt, add sugar and dried pieces of fruit (they must first be washed and cut). After the beep, you can serve it with honey.

Products:

Buckwheat - 1 half glass
Milk - 2 full glasses
Water - 1 full glass
Sugar - 2 tbsp.
Butter - a piece

How nice it is to cook porridge in a slow cooker. Be it buckwheat, pearl barley or any other, they all turn out very tasty. Moreover, labor costs are less than when cooking on a stove.

Milk buckwheat porridge will turn out even tastier if you use buckwheat grinding + buckwheat in equal proportions when cooking. In this version, the porridge will be practically boiled, you won’t even have to chew it. For children from 1 year old this is just right.

Buckwheat milk porridge in a slow cooker for a child (Polaris 0517):

1. Prepare products: washed buckwheat, milk, water, sugar and butter.

2. Pour buckwheat and sugar into a multi-pan. Add a piece of butter.

3. Pour in milk and water. Mix with a special spatula.

4. In the Polaris 0517 multicooker, set the “Grain” mode. Time - 25 minutes. This model also has a “milk porridge” mode. It has a preset minimum time of 35 minutes, but you can manually change it up or down. I tried cooking in this mode, and came to the conclusion that the “cereal” mode is better for milk buckwheat. But if you initially add more liquid, you can also use the “milk porridge” mode (for 1 cup of buckwheat, 4 cups of liquid). Other models of multicookers also have similar modes.

5. After the beep, the milk buckwheat porridge in the multicooker will be ready. You can leave it in warm mode for 10 minutes. But in this case, the buckwheat will steam even more and absorb all the liquid.

6. Buckwheat milk porridge is very healthy for children and adults.

Bon appetit!

Key points when preparing buckwheat milk porridge in a slow cooker:

1. The proportions of buckwheat to liquid are 1 to 3. If you want something more liquid, then 1 to 4. For something drier, 1 to 2.

2. Check the milk for freshness before cooking. Even if you add milk at the initial stage of souring, it will curdle.

2. If you want to cook porridge at a delayed start, it is better to cook it in water, otherwise there is a chance that the milk will curdle. It is better to add it to the finished porridge.

Buckwheat has many beneficial elements with a low amount of calories. Delicious porridge can be used both as an independent breakfast dish and as a side dish for lunch.

buckwheat - 200 g;
one onion;
water - 400 ml;

two cloves of garlic;
a little butter;
olive oil - 18 ml.

Cereal processing process

Buckwheat with meat in the Polaris multicooker will turn out tasty only if all the components of the dish are properly processed in advance. Preparing the presented lunch should begin with processing the cereal. To do this, you need to take the required amount of buckwheat and carefully sort it out, freeing it from any existing debris. Next, the cereal should be placed in a sieve and rinsed in warm water, regularly kneading it with your hands. At the same time, buckwheat is considered clean and suitable for boiling only after the liquid becomes as clear as possible.

It is especially worth noting that some chefs prefer to prepare such a dish with a minimum of heat treatment. After all, this is the only way to preserve all the beneficial properties of the products used. To do this, place clean cereal in a deep bowl, then fill it with filtered water and leave in this state for 13-15 hours (more is possible). After the specified time, the buckwheat will swell greatly and will not require long-term boiling. If you decide to make such a lunch spontaneously, then this procedure can be neglected.

Features of cooking in a multicooker: Polaris, Redmond.

Basically, these two models of multicookers are similar. The only difference is the availability of programs. Redmond has an Express program mode. This means that if you are in a hurry, you can set this program, and the food will be prepared faster without losing its taste. Both brands have a “Multi-cook” function, which automatically selects the time and temperature for cooking a dish. After cooking is completed, the “Warming” mode is automatically turned on. This way the dish will remain hot for a long time.

Perhaps the simplest thing you can cook using a slow cooker is porridge with water. This recipe will be useful for those who have recently purchased a miracle saucepan and have not yet fully mastered the proportions of ingredients and methods of preparing food.

Buckwheat (Polaris), the recipe for which I offer you, turns out crumbly and moderately moist. It can be an ideal side dish for meat dishes or a delicious hearty breakfast if you pour it with milk.

The recipe is shown using the Polaris 0517 AD multicooker as an example. In another technique: Redmond - “Grain” mode 25 minutes (or “Turbo”, “Normal”) 25 minutes, buckwheat in a Philips multicooker - “Porridge” mode 30 minutes. The proportions are the same as in this recipe.

By the way, buckwheat tolerates a delayed start very well: load everything from the evening into the multicooker bowl, turn on the “Grain” mode, then “Timer” and set the time after which cooking should begin. If you need breakfast by 7:30, the start should be 25 minutes earlier - that’s how long buckwheat is cooked in a slow cooker.

PMC-0511AD, PMC-0513ADG, PMC-0533AD, PMC-0541D, PMC-0542AD

Preparation: Prepare a multicooker and ingredients. Rinse the cereal and place it in the multicooker bowl. Add water and salt. Close the lid and turn on the “Grains” mode for 35 minutes. After the signal about the end of the program, leave in the “Heating” mode for 10-15 minutes. Add butter. Add milk if desired.

Have you recently acquired this device and are browsing cooking sites in search of good recipes for it? Or are you just planning a purchase? Then you should know that porridges turn out best in it. I have never had the opportunity to try porridge cooked, or rather even stewed, in a Russian oven, but I have already heard more than once that the result of cooking in a slow cooker is similar. But even without this comparison, I can say that it is very convenient to cook porridge in it. All you need is to know the correct proportions of cereal and water, use a certain program and that’s it - nothing else is required from you personally. This kitchen appliance will do the rest for you. Today we will talk about how to cook buckwheat porridge in a slow cooker. Let's start with the simplest thing, with cooking in water, then we'll try the milk and move on to more complex, so to speak, dishes: with chicken, meat, mushrooms and stewed meat. But first, let's talk about the modes (programs) in which buckwheat is cooked in different models of multicookers.

Buckwheat in a slow cooker: the basics

Despite the differences in the recipe and technique for cooking buckwheat in multicookers of various models, there are generally accepted rules and recommendations for cooking.

So, before pouring the grain into the water, you need to carefully sort it out and make sure that there is not a single spoiled grain or small stone left among the grains. Even if you bought an expensive, high-quality product, it is better to make sure that there are no rotten parts.

After this, the cereal must be rinsed several times in cold running water until it becomes clear. This procedure allows you to get rid of small debris and husks.

If you come across light brown cereal, you can heat it in a dry frying pan. A few minutes of intense frying is needed for the dish to be aromatic and crumbly.

It is not the porridge that needs to be salted, but the liquid before pouring the grains into it. To soften and add a richer flavor, you can add a tablespoon of butter or olive oil along with the salt.

Remember that grains absorb liquid and increase in volume by 2-3 times. So, from 100 grams of dry grains you will get 250-300 grams of buckwheat. In a multicooker, you should take into account the size of the bowl and the number of future servings.

If you have a Redmond multicooker at home, buckwheat is easy and tasty to prepare! The process will take a minimum of your time, and the whole family will enjoy the dish. It can be served as a side dish or as a breakfast dish on its own.

Required ingredients:

buckwheat (kernels) – 1 cup
water – 2.5 cups
butter – 2 tbsp. l.
salt - a pinch

Cooking method:

Rinse the kernel thoroughly under the tap, drain in a colander, heat in a frying pan and pour into the multicooker bowl.
Dissolve a pinch of salt in the required amount of clean, filtered liquid and pour it into the bowl.
Add a couple of tablespoons (not heaped) of butter. This is necessary to ensure that the porridge is tender and flavorful. In addition, butter helps soften tap water if you don't have a filter at home.
Close the lid and set the “Porridge” mode. Buckwheat in a Redmond multicooker takes 20 minutes to cook. This time is enough to make an elastic, crumbly porridge, but if you like it more swollen, increase the cooking time to 30-40 minutes.
After the signal about the end of cooking, open the lid and let the porridge “breathe” for a couple of minutes, then serve.

Our short instructions will help you cook buckwheat in the Polaris multicooker.

Buckwheat porridge with chicken in a slow cooker

List of ingredients:

buckwheat – 150 g;
chicken fillet – 1 pc.;
carrots – 1 pc.;
onion – 1 pc.;
salt – 1 tsp;
ground black pepper – 1/4 tsp;
seasoning for meat – 1/2 tsp;
tomato paste – 2 tbsp. l.;
water – 1.5 tbsp;
fresh herbs - optional;
vegetable oil - for frying.

Cooking method

Wash the chicken breast, wipe it dry, remove the cartilage and film. Cut into small slices, 1.5-2 cm thick.
Season the meat with salt, pepper and a mixture of your favorite spices (I used turmeric and basil chicken seasoning). Stir and marinate the chicken for 30 minutes.
In the meantime, you can prepare the vegetables. Grind the peeled carrots on a coarse grater, and cut the onion into thin half rings.
Pour a small amount of vegetable oil into the multicooker bowl. Add pieces of meat. Set the “Frying” mode or other desired mode for 10 minutes.
Then add chopped vegetables to the fried meat. Stir and continue cooking on the selected program for 10 minutes.
We sort through the buckwheat, remove all debris and dirt, and rinse it several times in running water.
When the vegetables and meat have acquired a beautiful golden color, you can add prepared cereal to them.
In boiled water (I needed about 1.5 cups) we dilute a few tablespoons of tomato paste (I used homemade one, but a store-bought product would work just fine). Pour the tomato mixture over buckwheat with meat and vegetables. If necessary, you can add more salt to taste and mix thoroughly. Turn on “Buckwheat” or “Stew” for 20-25 minutes.
