Iranian Haleem
- 1 liter water
- 1 lb turkey breast (skinless)
- 1 large onion (sliced)
- 1/2 lb bulgur
- cinnamon
- sesame
- sugar (optional)
- ghee (optional)
- Place turkey, onion and salt in a pot. Lower heat and cook until turkey is done (about 1 hour). If juices evaporate before turkey is done, add 1/4 cup water. When turkey is cooked, remove from the pot and mash with a potato masher.
- Add water to the bulgur to barely cover it (1 litr is enough), then bring to a boil.
- Stir occasionally, to prevent the formation of a crust on the bottom of the pan.
- In a food processor, mash bulgur into a soft paste and set aside.
- Return turkey and bulgur to the pot, mix well and cook over low heat for 2 hours. Then add butter, sugar and sesame.
- Serve it in a bowl, sprinkled with cinnamon.
