Ingredients
Bulgur
- 1/2 red onion
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 pack spiced bulgur
- 1 cup water
Fish
- 1 pack market fish
- 1 pack fish spices
- 1 Tbsp butter
- 1 pack slivered almonds
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
Greens
- 1 courgette
- 1 pack green beans
To Serve
- 1 pack dill yoghurt
Steps
-
Cook bulgur Bring a full kettle to the boil. Heat a drizzle of oil in a pot on medium heat. Thinly slice onion. Cook onion and garlic in pot for 1-2 minutes, until soft. Add bulgur, 1/2 tsp salt and water measure and bring to the boil. Once boiling, cover with a lid and reduce to low heat to cook for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and steam, still covered, for 8 minutes. Do not lift lid during cooking.
-
Prep fish Pat fish dry and remove any scales or bones. Cut larger fillets in half and score skin at 1cm intervals. Season and coat in fish spices.
-
Cook greens Peel courgette into ribbons. While bulgur is steaming, cook beans. Place beans in a heat-proof bowl with a pinch of salt. Cover with boiling water and cover bowl. Leave to steam for about 6 minutes, until tender. Drain and toss with courgette ribbons and a drizzle of olive oil. Season to taste.
-
Cook fish When bulgur has about 6 minutes steam time remaining, cook fish. Heat a drizzle of oil in a fry-pan on medium-high heat. Cook fish, skin side down for about 3 minutes, until skin is golden.
-
Flip fish, add butter and almonds and cook for 1-2 minutes more, or until fish is just cooked through and almonds are golden. Remove from heat and squeeze over lemon juice.
-
Serve bulgur, greens and fish topped with almonds, butter and dill yoghurt.
