Cooking Instructions

  1. For the dressing, mix together 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, honey and harissa paste. Set aside.
  2. Tip the bulgur wheat into a large bowl and pour over enough boiling water to cover. Let it stand for 10 minutes until tender and plump.
  3. Heat a griddle pan over a medium heat.
  4. Brush the sliced vegetables with olive oil and grill in a single layer, turning occasionally, for about 10 – 15 minutes, until lightly charred and tender. During the last 5 minutes of cooking, baste the brinjals with the honey harissa dressing.
  5. Drizzle half of the remaining dressing over the warm brinjals and peppers. Season well.
  6. Drain the bulgur wheat and pour over the remaining dressing. Add the lemon juice, lemon zest, spring onion, coriander and mint leaves. Season well and toss together.
  7. Serve the bulgur wheat on a platter, topped with grilled vegetables and dotted with double cream yoghurt if desired.
