Ingredients
Tabbouleh
- 1 beetroot
- 1 parsnip
- ¾ cup bulgur wheat
- 2 Tbsp pomegranate molasses
- 2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 3 Tbsp chopped mint
- 2 Tbsp chopped parsley
Beetroot Falafel
- 1 beetroot
- 300g falafel mix
Tzatziki
- ¼ telegraph cucumber
- 2 Tbsp chopped mint
- 150g yoghurt
Steps
-
Preheat oven to 220°C. Line an oven tray with baking paper. Bring a full kettle to the boil. Dice first beetroot and parsnip 1cm and toss on prepared tray with a drizzle of oil. Season and roast for about 20 minutes, until golden and tender.
-
While veggies roast, add bulgur and a pinch of salt to a heat-proof bowl and cover with boiling water. Cover and leave to soak for 15-18 minutes, until grains are tender. Drain well through a sieve.
-
While bulgur cooks, grate second beetroot into a large bowl. Add falafel mix, mix to combine and season. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan on medium heat and scoop heaped tablespoon amounts of falafel into the pan. Lightly flatten and cook for 1-2 minutes each side, until golden and cooked through.
-
While falafel cooks, in a large bowl, whisk together pomegranate molasses, vinegar, olive oil and first measure of mint and parsely. Once bulgur and veggies have cooked, toss through dressing and season to taste.
-
Grate cucumber and squeeze lightly to remove excess liquid. Add to a small bowl with second measure of mint and yoghurt and mix to combine.
-
To serve, spoon tzatziki onto plates, top with tabbouleh and beetroot falafel.
