Instructions
Gently boil potatoes in a large pot of water for 20 minutes, or until tender.
Drain, and return to the pot. Mash potatoes with 2 tablespoons butter or margarine, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 cup milk until fairly smooth. Set aside.
In a saucepan, bring 1 1/2 cups water with 1/2 teaspoon salt to a boil. Stir in kasha. Reduce heat, and simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes.
Add 1 1/2 cups more water, and bring to a boil.
Add bulgur, cover, and remove from heat.
Let stand for 10 minutes.
In a large saucepan, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter or margarine over medium heat.
Add onions, garlic, and carrots; saute until the onions soften.
Add mushrooms; cook and stir for 3 to 4 minutes.
Sprinkle flour over vegetables; stir constantly for 2 minutes, or until flour starts to brown.
Pour remaining 1 1/2 cups milk over the vegetables, and increase heat to high. Stir with a whisk until sauce is smooth. Reduce heat, and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in corn, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and black pepper to taste.
Mix together vegetable mixture and kasha mixture in a large bowl. Spoon into a buttered 10 inch pie pan, and smooth with a spatula.
Spread mashed potatoes over top, leaving an uneven surface.
Bake in a preheated 350 degree F (175 degree C) oven for 30 minutes.
Garnish with the chopped parsley, and serve.
