Cooking Instructions and Tips

Char the Pepper
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Boil a half-full kettle.

Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Cut lengthways into large wedges.

Lay the pepper wedges, cut-side down, onto a baking tray. Drizzle with oil, then season with salt and pepper.

When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until soft and slightly charred, 18-20 mins.

Cook the Bulgur
2

Next, pour the boiled water (see pantry) into a large saucepan. Stir in the bulgur with the salt (see pantry), bring back up to the boil on high heat and simmer for 1 min.

Put a lid on the pan and remove from the heat. Leave to the side for 12-15 mins or until ready to serve.

Prep the Veg
3

Whilst the bulgur cooks, half the cherry tomatoes.

Roughly chop the rocket.

Zest the whole lemon, then juice one half and cut the other half into wedges. 

Make the Dressing
4

In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice with the harissa and honey.

Set aside your honey harissa dressing.

Make the Salad
5

Once the bulgur is cooked, stir in the sun-dried tomato paste, lemon zest, tomatoes, rocket, and olive oil (see pantry).

Crumble over half the feta and stir to combine.

Serve
6

Divide the bulgur salad between your bowls and top with the charred pepper. Crumble over the remaining feta.

Spoon over the honey harissa dressing.

Scatter with the pumpkin seeds and garnish with the lemon wedges to finish.
