Bulgur Wheat With Sautéed Vegetables Recipes

BULGUR-STUFFED SUMMER VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the bulgur in a heatproof bowl. In a sauce pan, bring the chicken broth and 1 1/2 cups water to a boil. When the liquid has come to a boil, pour over the bulgur. Let sit until the bulgur absorbs the liquid, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prep the vegetables: Cut off the top third of the bell peppers. Remove the seeds and ribs leaving a 'cup' for the stuffing. Dice the flesh from the top 1/3 and reserve. Cut a 1/3 of the zucchini lengthwise to reveal the seeds. Scoop out the seeds to create a boat. Dice the remaining 1/3 pieces. Slice the tomatoes in half and scoop out the seeds to create a cup.
• In a large saute pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sweat until translucent. Add the reserved chopped peppers, squash, mushrooms, and garlic to the pan. Season the vegetables with salt and pepper. Cook until the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Drain the cooked vegetables, if necessary, and add to the cooked bulgur.
• Sprinkle salt and pepper on the inside of the vegetable 'cups.' Stuff the vegetables with the bulgur mixture, place in a shallow baking dish, cover with foil, and bake for 45 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese, then bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is brown and melted.

BULGUR WHEAT WITH SAUTéED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Simmer the bulgur in the broth, uncovered, for about 15 min, mixing occasionally.
• Add granulated garlic and basil and stir thoroughly, then set aside so bulgur can absorb any remaining liquid.
• Sauté the onions and mushrooms in 1 tbsp of the olive oil until onions are softened and starting to turn translucent.
• Add bell peppers and continue to cook until peppers are crisp-tender.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Add the bulgur wheat to the pan with the vegetables and toss to combine, breaking up any lumps.
• Drizzle with remaining olive oil (or alternatively, stir in some butter). Taste for seasoning and adjust accordingly.
• Serve immediately while hot.

Transfer cooked vegetables with a slotted spoon to a large plate to cool.

Steps:

• Mix together the oil, honey and harissa, then drizzle half over the aubergines and pepper. Season well. Heat a griddle pan, then cook the veg for 10-15 mins, turning until lightly charred and cooked through.
• Meanwhile, tip the bulgur wheat into a large bowl and pour over boiling water so it is well covered.

Serve the roasted vegetables on top of the bulgur, drizzled with yogurt, if you like.
