Ingredients

    2 c. vegetable stock
    1/2 tsp. dried thyme
    1 tsp. olive oil
    1 leek
    3 garlic cloves
    1 c. pearled barley
    1/2 c. cooking sherry
    1/2 tsp. salt

Directions

Saute the leek and garlic in the olive oil. Stir in the barley and toll to coat. Add wine and cook until absorbed. Add stock and thyme and bring to boil. Cover, reduce heat to low. Cook, stirring every 5 minutes or so, until the stock is absorbed and barley is al dente, about 30-35 minutes. Add a little more stock or water if the barley is too chewy for your taste. Add 1/2 tsp. salt and serve.
