This cereal is a popular side dish, which is not inferior to buckwheat or pasta.

There are important nuances in preparing any dish, even the simplest one. Without them, the dish will turn out, but its quality may disappoint.

An even greater effect can be achieved by adding 50 g of butter to the pan.
