Nutritional values
Anyone who appreciates the spicy buckwheat flavour will have a good laugh: ...because the seeds contain many important nutrients, including tryptophane. This essential amino acid plays an essential role in brain metabolism and is known for its effect as a "happiness substance".
Good to know if you or your fellow eaters suffer from gluten intolerance: Buckwheat is not a "real" grain and therefore free from gluten protein.

Preparation steps
Bring 450 ml (approximately 2 cups) of lightly salted water to a boil in a pot. Rinse the buckwheat groats under hot water in a sieve, then drain and add to the boiling water. Return to a boil while stirring.
Cover pot and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, 5-6 minutes.
Meanwhile, rinse scallions, wipe dry and cut into 1 cm (approximately 1/2-inch) thick rings. Add to pot and cook, covered, until groats are tender and liquid is absorbed, 5-6 minutes more.
Rinse the turkey cutlets, pat dry and cut into long, thin strips.
Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat and cook the turkey until golden brown all over, about 4 minutes, turning frequently.
Rinse the herbs, shake dry, pluck leaves and chop finely. Reserve about 1/3 for garnish and stir the rest into the groats. Season with salt and pepper. Stir the yogurt in a small bowl until smooth. Divide groats and turkey among plates, sprinkle with remaining herbs and serve with yogurt.
