If including barley in soups or hotpots, add it at the beginning of the cooking process with 3-4 cups of water or stock and allow approximately 45 minutes cooking time. To cook pearled barley as a side dish, simmer 1 cup of barley and 3 cups of water or stock, covered on a low heat for about 45 minutes.
When barley is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed; fluff grains with a fork, and serve with curries and stir-fries. Pre-cooked Barley can also be used in salads and as a savoury filling for stuffed capsicums.
