Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp bulgar wheat
  • 2 long romano red peppers, halved and seeded
  • olive oil
  • 3 herby pork sausages, skins removed
  • 1 clove garlic, sliced
  • 1/2 tsp fennel seeds, crushed slightly
  • a pinch chilli flakes
  • 400g tin cherry tomatoes
  • 1/2 a small bunch flat leaf parsley
  • 25g parmesan or grana padano, finely grated
  • to serve green salad

Method

  • STEP 1

    Put the bulgar wheat in a bowl and pour over boiling water. Leave for 10 minutes then drain really well.

  • STEP 2

    Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Rub the peppers with a little oil, season then put on a baking tray. Cook for 15 minutes then take out.

  • STEP 3

    Meanwhile heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a non-stick pan. Break small pieces of sausage into the pan then cook until browned, breaking them up with a spatula as you cook so they are like chunky mince. Add the garlic and cook for a minute then add the spices and cook for another minute. Tip in the tomatoes and simmer for 20 minutes. Stir the parsley in with the bulgar wheat.

  • STEP 4

    Fill the peppers with the sausage mix. Sprinkle over the parmesan then bake for another 10-15 minutes until golden and bubbling. Serve with a green salad.
