Instructions

1

Rinse the red kidney beans and pearl barley thoroughly. Boil them in separate pots with water until tender, about 25-30 minutes for the barley and 40 minutes for the beans. Drain well.

2

In a small heavy-bottomed pan, heat the walnut oil over medium-low heat. Add the spring onions and sauté until they begin to brown and caramelize, releasing a sweet aroma.

3

Add the cooked beans and barley to the pan. Sprinkle with the ground cumin and toss gently to toast the spices and coat the grains in the aromatic oil.

4

Cook for another 3 minutes until the mixture is fragrant and heated through.

5

Transfer to a shallow bowl. Serve warm, garnished with a few fresh scallion greens for crunch.
