Ingredients

  • Onion - 1 large onion, very finely chopped
  • Mint - 2 tbsp chopped mint
  • Beetroot - 160g cooked beetroot, diced
  • Rocket - 2 big handfuls of rocket
  • Basil - 4 tbsp chopped basil
  • Cider Vinegar - 2 tsp cider vinegar
  • Thyme - 2 sprigs of thyme
  • Avocado - 1 avocado, halved, destoned and chopped

  1. Tip the onion and bulgur mix into a pan, pour over 600ml water and stir in the thyme and bouillon. Cook, covered, over a low heat for 15 mins, then leave to stand for 10 mins.

Toss well, add the orange, then pile onto the remaining portions of bulghur, scatter with the pine nuts and sprinkle with extra cinnamon. Chill in the fridge until needed.
