Instructions

1

Bring a large pot of water to the boil with a pinch of salt. Add the freekeh and continue to boil gently for 12 mins. Drain, cover with a tea towel and keep to one side until everything else is ready.

Prep the veg
2

Remove the core from the red pepper and chop into small cubes ½cm thick, if your knife skills allow. Finely slice the spring onions. Pick the mint and coriander leaves and then roughly chop the leaves.

Make the dressing
3

Make a dressing using the zest and juice of the lemon, a pinch of salt, the zahtar spice and the olive oil (as stated in the ingredient list). Give it all a good whisk.

Mix the freekeh
4

Mix your freekeh with the chopped red pepper, spring onion, mint, coriander, pomegranate seeds and half your dressing. Taste for seasoning and add more salt and pepper to your liking.

5

Divide the salad between your bowls and top with crumbled feta and a drizzle more of your dressing.
