Ingredients

• 250 g Coarse bulgur
• 500 g Brussels sprouts
• 2 pc Tart apples
• 1 pc Onion
• 2 pc Garlic cloves
• 3 tbsp Olive oil
• 600 ml Water
• 1 tsp Sweet paprika powder
• 1 tsp Dried thyme
• 200 g Feta
• 50 g Walnut kernels
• 1 tbsp Honey

Method

1. Finely dice or chop the onion and garlic. Trim the Brussels sprouts and halve them. Core the apples and cut them into small cubes.
2. Heat two tablespoons of olive oil in a large pan with a lid. Sweat the onion and garlic over medium heat for about 3 minutes until translucent.
3. Add the Brussels sprouts and apple cubes and fry for 5 minutes. Stir in the sweet paprika powder and thyme.
4. Stir in the bulgur, deglaze with water and season with salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover with the lid and simmer for about 12 minutes until the bulgur is tender and the liquid has been absorbed.
5. Remove the pan from the heat and let the dish rest covered for about 5 minutes.
6. Toast the walnuts in a small dry pan until golden brown and chop them coarsely.
7. Crumble the feta. Whisk the lemon juice and honey with the remaining olive oil and drizzle over the pan, then season with salt and pepper.
8. Serve sprinkled with feta and walnuts.
