Instructions

1

Pre-heat your oven to 220 degrees. Chop the top and bottom off the squash, then cut it in half lengthways and scrape out the seeds with a spoon. Cut into 1cm wide slices (no need to peel the squash!). Pop your squash on a large baking tray and sprinkle on the ground coriander, a drizzle of oil, pinch of salt and grind of black pepper. Place in your oven to cook for 25-30 mins, or until soft. Turn half way through to make sure they cook evenly.

2

While your squash is roasting you can get on with everything else! Bring a pot of water (the amount is specified in the list above) to boil on high heat. Add the vegetable stock pot and bulgur wheat to your pot and stir to combine. Remove from the heat, cover with a lid or plate and leave for 10 mins (the bulgur wheat will absorb all of your stock as it cooks). Once cooked, remove the lid and use a fork to fluff your bulgur wheat.

3

Remove the root form the spring onions and then finely chop. Separate the leaves from the stems of the mint and roughly chop the leaves. Repeat with the flat leaf parsley. Discard all stems. Juice the lemon. Chop the top and bottom off your cucumber, then cut it in half lengthways. Cut each half into four long strips and then chop into 1cm cubes (roughly!).

4

In a large mixing bowl, combine your bulgur, spring onions, mint, parsley, cucumber, lemon juice, olive oil (the amount is specified in the ingredients list) and pomegranate seeds. Taste and season well with a generous pinch of salt and a good grind of pepper.

5

Use your hands to roughly tear the mozzarella into bite sized pieces.

6

Serve your roasted butternut slices on your herby, pomegranate pilaf and top with the mozzarella. Enjoy!
