Directions
- Combine spices in a small bowl.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add barley and cook, stirring, until it turns golden brown (4-5 minutes).
- Add veggies and cook, stirring constantly, until onion begins to turn translucent (3-4 minutes). Stir in spice mixture and cook, continuing to stir, till they send up their perfume (1-2 minutes).
- Add stock, season with salt to taste, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat. Cover and simmer till barley has absorbed most of the stock and is tender but still has texture (45-50 minutes). Adjust seasonings and serve immediately.
