PREPARATION MAÏSOTTO
Peel, mince and melt the onions and garlic sweat sweat with the olive oil in a pan. Cook the bulgur in a pan so that it becomes translucid. Add the white wine, the white sauce, salt, pepper and laurel leaves. Reduce by half. Wet with the water and allow to simmer for 20 min. Remove as soon as the cooking is done to avoid the boulgour from continuing to cook in the pan.
