To start, the bulgur wheat is cooked to fluffy perfection. It provides a nutritious and satisfying grain that is perfect for filling you up without weighing you down.

Afterwards, you cut and cook for 4 minutes in 1 tbsp oil, the pepper, zucchini, and onion. Then, you add the chickpeas, which are braised in a mixture of vegetable broth concentrate and tomato sauce, along with a blend of fragrant spices like curry paste. The result is a rich and hearty base perfect for soaking up the flavours of the other ingredients.

What is bulgur wheat?

"Bulgur wheat is a whole grain that's commonly used in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine. It's made by boiling and drying wheat berries, then removing the outer bran layer and cracking the remaining kernel into small pieces. The resulting grains have a slightly nutty flavor and a chewy texture that makes them a popular ingredient in salads, stews, and other dishes."

---

But what really sets this dish apart is the garlic toum. So what is it, exactly? Garlic toum is a traditional Lebanese sauce made from garlic, lemon juice, and oil, emulsified together to create a creamy and tangy dressing that's perfect for drizzling over savoury dishes like these braised chickpeas.

To make HelloFresh's garlic toum, mix garlic minced garlic, mayonnaise, and water until smooth and creamy. Drizzle over the chickpeas and bulgur wheat, then top with crumbled feta cheese for a delicious and nutritious meal that's sure to please.

My favourite part of the dish is the strong taste and unique flavour of salty feta cheese.

My Sister's Dinner: Cooking Her Boyfriend's Favorite Foods

Happy Saturday! My sister's boyfriend is celebrating his birthday tomorrow, and she prepared all his favourite food items. They invited us for dinner.

Food Coma dinner prepared by my sister for her boyfriend.

My husband and I walked to Likha Local Collective on Main Street to buy Filipino books as gifts for my sister's boyfriend so he could learn more about our culture and commonly use Filipino words.

Filipino Books for my sister's boyfriend.

We arrived at their apartment at around 4:30 PM, and my sister was still busy in the kitchen, and I did my best to help her set the table.

She cooked Barbecue Baby Back Ribs, corn on a cob, potato salad, and pineapple coleslaw. It was a feast, and everything was delicious. We're food coma. We also enjoyed a Peanut Butter Chocolate Mousse slice from Sweet Obsession to end the meal.

After eating, we played Jackbox video games and had a good laugh. Then, we walked home shortly before 10:00 PM while our only brother and youngest sister rode an Uber back to Richmond. It's good to spend time with the family.
