thanks u every one for ur lovely feedbacks
I made this last night and it was great! I had to use bulgur wheat, as I didn't have regular cracked wheat, but I don't think it compromised the recipe since they are similar. I made half of the recipe and it was still quite a lot!! Thank you for this...I will be making again and again!!
