Moroccan Spiced Bulgur And Chickpea Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Combine first 6 ingredients in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk; set aside.
• Combine boiling water and bulgur in a large bowl. Cover and let stand 20 minutes or until liquid is absorbed.
• Add bulgur, carrots, and remaining ingredients to juice mixture, and toss well to coat. Cover and chill.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200c/fan 180c/gas 6. Toss the squash and red pepper in the harissa paste and oil. Spread the chunks out on a large baking tray and roast for 20 mins until softened and the edges of the vegetables are starting to char.
• Meanwhile put the bulgur wheat in a large bowl and pour over the hot stock, then cover tightly with cling film and leave to absorb the liquid for 15 mins until the grains are tender, but still have a little bite. In a separate bowl, mix the garlic and lemon juice into the yogurt and season to taste.
• Let the bulgur wheat cool slightly then toss in the roasted vegetables, chickpeas and spinach - the leaves may wilt a little. Season, if you want, drizzle with the garlicky yogurt and serve warm.

Steps:

• Thickly slice the aubergines and arrange over a grill rack. Brush lightly with oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, then grill until browned. Turn them over, brush and season again then cook until tender, about 8-10 mins in total. Remove from the grill and cut each slice into quarters.
• Drain and rinse the chickpeas, then tip into a bowl with the aubergine, coriander and red onion. Mix the dressing ingredients in a screw-top jar, shake well, then use to dress the salad.

Steps:

• Put chickpeas in a large saucepan.
• Add water to cover and stir in 1 tsp of salt.
• Bring to a boil over high heat, then lower heat to medium and simmer until tender, about 1 hour.
• Drain the chickpeas and discard any loose skins.
• In a serving bowl, combine all the remaining ingredients.
• Add the chickpeas and toss well.
• Cover and refrigerate for atleast 4 hours before serving.
