Pick over the madimak, wash it, and chop finely.
Saute the onion in olive oil for 5 minutes.
Add the tomato paste and cook it in the oil for 2 minutes.
Add the madimak and bulgur and turn for 3 minutes.
Add enough hot water to cover and cook for 30 minutes.
Rest for 5 minutes, adjusting with hot water so the swollen bulgur does not make the dish too thick.
💡 Tip: Adjust with hot water near the end; the bulgur thickens the dish as it rests.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve warm with yogurt.
