Ingredients
-
6oz bulgar wheat
400g chickpeas
200g peas
2tsp oil
large onion
about 1/3 large red pepper
3 tsp moroccan spices
fresh coriander
Directions
1) Put bulgar wheat, chickpeas and peas in just under 2 pints of boiling water. Let it simmer for 10-15 minutes. The water should be sucked up when the bulgar wheat is tender.
2) Fry the onion and pepper in the oil, adding the morrocan spices. Be generous with the seasoning - chickpeas tend to soak up a lot of flavour!
3) Put the cashews under the grill until they are golden brown. Watch like a hawk - this happens very fast! Alternatively dry fry them in a pan.
4) Mix bulgar and chickpea mixture with the onion, peppers and cashews.
5) Serve garnished with a liberal amount of chopped fresh coriander.
