Bulgur with roasted chickpeas and toasted vegetables

Bulgur is a typical Mediterranean product that is made from wheat. In the southern part of the Mediterranean, in North Africa, it is the base of stews and used in the most common salads. It is a source of vitamins and minerals: it provides vitamin A, as well as magnesium, calcium and iron. LetsCook offers you this exquisite dish, full of Mediterranean flavours with roasted chickpeas, toasted vegetables with fresh thyme, and to finish a touch of lemon and feta cheese.

Cooking step by step

Cooking
step by step

The oven:

Pre-heat oven to 220ºC. Heat above and below. 

El horno

Mise en place:

Cut courgette in 2 cm pieces.
Cut tomatoes in half.
Cut lemon in half.
Chop scallion, separate the white part from the green.
Separate thyme leaves from its branches.

All in the oven:

Place courgette and tomato on an oven tray. Add thyme (reserve a little for later), a dash of olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Bake in the middle of the oven for about 20 min approx. Stir occasionally.

The chickpeas:

Wash the chickpeas and distribute them on an oven tray (can be on the same one as the vegetables if there is space). Add sweet paprika, a dash of olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Bake in the upper part of the oven, above the vegetables, 20 min approx. (until crispy).
Stir occasionally. It is normal that they explode!

The bulgur:

Heat a dash of oil in a pot and fry the white part of the scallion. After a couple of minutes, add bulgur, broth (shred the dice), salt, pepper and water; 1 cup of bulgur = 2 cups of water.
Let boil covered for 10-12 minutes over low heat until the bulgur is al dente. 

The finishing touch:

Squeeze lemon over the cooked bulgur. Add half the roasted vegetables and half the feta cheese. Salt to taste and stir.
Divide bulgur between your plates, then sprinkle with the rest of the vegetables, roasted chickpeas, feta cheese, scallion (green part) and thyme.
