Rinse and drain the barley, then slice the mushrooms.
Turn the barley in oil for 2 minutes.
Add the mushrooms for the barley pilaf and cook for 5 minutes, until they release and absorb their liquid.
For the barley pilaf, add hot water and salt, then close the lid.
Cook the pilaf over low heat for 20 minutes.
Add the dill and rest for 8 minutes so the barley grains settle.
💡 Tip: Briefly toasting the barley dry helps the grains stay firmer.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve the pilaf warm, sprinkled with dill, with yogurt on the side.
