Okra is a subtle-flavoured vegetable that works well with strong flavours. This recipe combines okra, bulgar wheat, mint, parsley and lemon for a hearty meal.

Ingredients

50 g bulgar wheat

175 g okra, ends trimmed

olive oil

1 garlic clove, crushed

4 tomatoes, chopped

1 tsp kalonji (black onion seeds)

1 bunch flat leaf parsley, chopped

1 mint bunch, chopped

1 lemon, juiced

natural yoghurt, to serve (optional)

Method

  1. Put the bulgar wheat in a bowl, add enough boiling water to cover it by 1cm, cover with a plate and leave for 20 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, fry the okra in a little oil and as it softens, add the garlic and stir, followed by the tomatoes. Simmer everything for 5 minutes and then add the kalonji and season well.
  3. Drain the bulgar wheat and stir in the parsley, mint and lemon, season well and stir in some olive oil. Spoon into a bowl and spoon the okra on top. Add some yoghurt, if you like.
