Curried Barley, Pine Nuts and Raisin Salad

I had the curried barley, pine nuts and raisin salad a few weeks ago and I liked it enough to want to recreate it. The only thing I changed is the sweetness level, I think the one I had some added sweetness perhaps it was honey.

Ingredients

1 cup barley or brown rice

1 tbsp olive oil

1 onion

1 bell pepper or a quarter of each bell pepper  in different colours

2 garlic cloves

1/4 cup pine nuts

1/2 cup  raisins

1/2 tsp tumeric

1/4 tsp cumin

1/4 tsp curry powder

1/4 tsp crushed ginger

1/4 tsp cinammon

1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

Cook barley like you would rice with a 1:2 ratio with water.

Chop all the vegetables.

Saute all the vegetables and spices in pan.

Add the cooked barley and mix thoroughly.

Serve warm as a side dish or with some leafy greens.
