Barley, Turmeric and Saffron

I prepared this dish using my new ceramic pan … Needless to speak about my level of excitement seeing the all ingredients while cooking on a white background … But perhaps I should keep for myself all these insane exaltations!
Considerations: quick dish, very spicy, light and alternative.


Ingredients:
100 gr of pearly barley
200 gr of zucchini
1 tablespoon of turmeric
saffron powder
1 shallot
extra virgin olive oil
a few ladles of vegetable broth
salt
pepper

Method:
Mince the shallot nice and thin, and fry it in a pan with 2 tablespoons of oil. Cut the zucchini in slices a few millimeters thick and add them to the shallot; pour two ladles of broth over. Now, add barley, turmeric and saffron. Stir, adding more broth if too dry. Finally, add salt and pepper. Should cook 30 minutes, adding a bit of broth occasionally.
Once again, I show you a special place in my island, which gave me the inspiration for this recipe! 🙂 See you soon.
