Ingredients

1 cup buckwheat groats
1 onion

Steps

Melt 1 tablespoon of vegan margarine in a medium saucepan over medium heat, then toast the buckwheat for 3 minutes.
Add 2 cups water and salt, cover the saucepan, and simmer the buckwheat for 15 minutes.
Melt the remaining margarine in a large skillet over medium-low heat and cook the sliced onion for 20 minutes.
Add the mushrooms and cook for 15 minutes, until their moisture evaporates and the edges brown.
