Ingredients225g (8oz) bulgur wheat
Veg stock powder
Large amounts of parsley and mint (chopped)
Spring onions (chopped)
Reconstituted sun-dried tomatoes (chopped)

Handy Hint
Most of this can be done well ahead of time and it can be expanded to provide carbs for many people. Other ingredients such as drained, rinsed, tinned mixed beans can be added to taste. |
Method1. Dissolve 2 teaspoons veg stock powder in about 1/2 pint hot water and cover the wheat in a large bowl.
2. Leave 20 mins till all the stock is absorbed - if any liquid left, squeeze it out.
3. Add the herbs, onions, lemon juice and lemon zest, apricots if using, sundried tomatoes, drained and season well.
4. Mix gently but well and drizzle some olive oil.
5. Cover and chill until just before required then add the cucumber and peppers, drained. It should taste distinctly lemony and look quite 'green' so add more juice and mint if needed.
6. Garnish with cherry tomatoes.
