Heat olive oil and brown the onions from all sides. Set aside.

Strain the meat broth and reserve ½ of it to make the sauce. Cook the bulgur in the remaining stock until soft. Place the meat and beans back in the pot with the bulgur as well as onions.

To make the sauce, toast the flour in a skillet until light brown and fragrant. Add the reserved meat stock and stir till thickened. Serve with the bulgur pilaf.
