Stuffed tomatoes with pine nuts
Whip up these feel-good bulgur-stuffed tomatoes for a simple supper the whole family will love. Serve with a cooling yoghurt dressing and a basic green salad. It’s a filling midweek meal and everyone will be requesting seconds. Boil the bulgur wheat in water for 10-15 mins, or put in a heatproof bowl, cover with boiling water and leave to soak for 20-30 mins, until the water is absorbed and the grains are tender. Soaking the bulgur will give you a chewier texture, which is perfect for salads like tabbouleh or for stuffing tomatoes and peppers. It is best boiled from raw for soups and stews. Use your imagination when it comes to the extra ingredients. We suggest onion, garlic, veggies, all topped off with cheese and pine nuts.
