Cooking steps

Make the Bulgur
1
  • Place a pot over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Halve, peel and chop the onion into small pieces.
  • When oil is hot, fry half the onion until softened, 4-5 mins.
  • Add 300ml water (per 2P) and half the stock to the pot. Bring to the boil.
  • Add the bulgur, bring back to the boil then simmer for 1 min. Cover and remove from heat. Leave aside for 12-15 mins (or until ready to serve).
Soften the Onion
2
  •  Chop the paneer into 2cm cubes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Place a (separate) large pot over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • When the oil is hot, fry the paneer until golden all over, 5-8 mins. Remove once cooked.
  • Add the remaining onion.  Cook until softened, 4-5 mins.
Get Prepped

  • Meanwhile, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
  • Trim the courgette, then quarter lengthways. Slice widthways into 1cm thick pieces.
  • Drain and rinse the chickpeas.
  • Pop half into a bowl and roughly mash with the back of a fork.
  • Once the onion has softened, add the garlic, Middle Eastern spice and chickpeas (whole and mashed). Cook until fragrant, 1 min.

  • Pour 100ml water (per 2P) and remaining stock into the chickpeas along with the passata.

  • Cover and cook until thickened, 8-10 mins.
Cook the Paneer
