FLUFFED BULGUR
Boil the kettle. Using a shallow bowl, submerge the bulgur wheat in 100ml of boiling water. Add a drizzle of oil, ½ the spice blend, and some seasoning. Gently stir through with a fork. Cover with a plate and set aside to steam for 5-8 minutes until tender. Once cooked, fluff up with the fork.
CHARRED CORN & GREEN LEAVES
Place a pan over a high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the corn for 3-4 minutes until charred, shifting occasionally. Set aside. Just before serving, toss the shredded green leaves with the corn.
JUICY BEEF STROG
