Saute the onion in olive oil over medium heat for 5 minutes, until softened.
Add the bulgur and saute for 2 minutes, turning it until the grains shine.
Add the rosehip marmalade and dried mint, then stir for 30 seconds so the aromas combine.
Add 2.5 cups hot water, the salt, and black pepper, then wait for it to boil.
Cook covered over low heat for 15-18 minutes, until the bulgur absorbs the water.
Remove from the heat and let it steam, covered, for 10 minutes before serving.
💡 Tip: If the marmalade is very sweet, replace 1 tablespoon with rosehip molasses or pomegranate molasses for a better sweet-sour balance. If using rosehip marmalade with seeds, strain it finely after cooking and drizzle it over the pilaf.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve hot with plain yogurt or cacik, and scatter fresh mint on top if you like.
