Cooking Instructions and Tips

Roast 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.

Meanwhile, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Bulgur Time
2

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large saucepan on medium-high heat. Stir in the garlic and fry until fragrant, 1 min.

Pour the boiled water for the bulgur (see pantry for amount) into the saucepan. Stir in the bulgur and vegetable stock paste, 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.

Finish the Prep
3

While the bulgur cooks, halve the baby plum tomatoes.

Roughly chop the rocket.

Zest the lemon, then juice one half into a small bowl and cut the other half into wedges.

Make your Dressing
4

Add the harissa and honey (see pantry for amount) to the bowl of lemon juice and mix to combine.

Set aside your honey-harissa dressing.

All Together Now
5

Stir the sun-dried tomato paste, lemon zest, tomatoes, rocket and olive oil for the dressing (see pantry for amount) into the bulgur to make your salad.

Season with salt and pepper. Crumble over half the Greek style salad cheese and stir to combine.

Serve Up
6

Share the bulgur salad between your bowls and top with the charred pepper. 

Spoon over the honey-harissa dressing. Crumble over the remaining Greek style salad cheese.

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

Enjoy!
