IN A PICKLE
Pour the vinegar in a bowl, add 2 tbsp of water, and 1 tbsp of sweetener. Mix until combined. Toss through the sliced radish, the cucumber matchsticks, and the carrot. Set aside in the fridge.
COOK THE BULGUR
Boil the kettle. Place the bulgur wheat in a bowl with 75ml of boiling water. Stir through a drizzle of olive oil and seasoning. Cover and set aside until rehydrated, 15-20 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
FRY THE MINCE
Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the mince and work quickly to break it up as it starts to cook. Fry until browned, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the sliced onion and fry until soft, 3-4 minutes. Mix in the NOMU rub, a generous knob of butter, and fry until fragrant 30-60 seconds.
JUST BEFORE SERVING
Discard the pickling liquid, reserving 2 tbsp in a bowl or jar. Make a dressing with the reserved pickling liquid and 1 tsp of olive oil. Mix or shake to emulsify and season.
TIME TO DINE
Make a bed of the fluffy bulgur wheat, top with the flavorful mince, and side with the pickled veggies. Drizzle the salad dressing (to taste) over the veggies and sprinkle over the chopped coriander. Nice one, Chef!
