Instructions

Char the Pepper
1

Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 1cm chunks. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Heat a large frying pan on high heat (no oil).

Once hot, add the pepper chunks and cook until charred, 5-6 mins. Adjust the heat if necessary. Stir only twice during this time - you want the pepper to pick up some nice colour.

Cook the Bulgur
2

Meanwhile, put a deep saucepan (with a tight-fitting lid) on medium heat with a drizzle of oil. 

Once hot, add the garlic and fry for 30 secs. Stir in the bulgur until coated, 30 secs.

Stir in half the chicken stock paste and water for the bulgur wheat (see pantry for amount). Bring to the boil and simmer for 1 min.

Put a lid on the pan and remove from the heat. Leave to the side for 12-15 mins or until ready to serve.

Fry the Mince and Veg
3

Add the pork mince to the charred pepper. Fry until the mince has browned, 5-6 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince.

Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks, then drain and discard any excess fat.

Spicy Sauce Time
4

Add the remaining garlic, tomato puree and Cajun spice mix to the pork (add less Cajun spice mix if you'd prefer things milder). Stir-fry for 30 secs.

Next, stir the remaining chicken stock paste, sun-dried tomato paste, tomato ketchup and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts) into the pork.

Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat slightly and simmer until the sauce has thickened, 2-3 mins. IMPORTANT: The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Add the Mint
5

Meanwhile, pick the mint leaves from their stalks and roughly chop (discard the stalks).

Stir half of the mint through the cooked bulgur.

Taste the pork and season with salt and pepper if needed. Add a splash of water if needed.

Serve Up
6

Share the mint bulgur between your bowls and top with the Cajun pork.

Finish with a scattering of the remaining mint.

Enjoy!
