Give a high-five for bulgur, Chef! Free from cholesterol, high in fibre & manganese but low in sodium, this grain ticks all the nutritional boxes. The best news is that it isn’t healthy over hearty, as you’ll see when you enjoy a mouthful of nutty bulgur loaded with charred corn, cucumber & mint. Top this with cayenne pepper-spiced trout, drizzle over minty yoghurt, and finish with toasted almonds.
