Middle Eastern Inspired Sticky Beef

with Pomegranate Molasses, Tabbouleh, Parsley and Yoghurt

Here, the Middle Eastern inspired flavour comes from chermoula and pomegranate molasses. Made from reduced pomegranate juice, pomegranate molasses is a deliciously sticky condiment, adding richness that's offset by the herby and fresh tabbouleh.

Instructions

Cook the Bulgur
1

a) Pour the water for the bulgur (see pantry for amount) into a large saucepan, stir in half the chicken stock paste and bring to the boil.

b) Stir in the bulgur, bring back up to the boil and simmer for 1 min.

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

Fry the Beef
2

a) Heat a medium frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil).

b) Once hot, add the beef mince and fry until browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks, then drain and discard any excess fat.

c) Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Get Prepped
3

a) While the beef cooks, chop the tomato into 1cm pieces.

b) Roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all).

c) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Simmer the Sauce
4

a) Mix the garlic, chermoula spice mix (add less if you'd prefer things milder) and tomato puree into the beef and cook for 1 min.

b) Stir in the pomegranate molasses, dried cranberries, remaining chicken stock paste, sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts).

c) Bring to the boil, then simmer until reduced slightly, 3-4 mins. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed.

Add the Tomatoes
5

a) Once cooked, fluff up the bulgur wheat with a fork, then stir through the tomatoes and half of the parsley.

b) Taste and add salt and pepper if needed.

Serve
6

a) Spoon the tabbouleh into bowls.

b) Serve the spiced beef on top of the tabbouleh with a dollop of yoghurt. Sprinkle over the remaining parsley.

Enjoy!
