Preparation
1
Start the Prep

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Halve, peel and chop the red onion into small pieces.

Zest and cut the lemon into wedges. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Add half the chopped onion to a medium bowl and squeeze over the juice from half the lemon. Season with salt, mix and set aside to pickle.

2
Cook the Bulgur

Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium saucepan on medium heat. Add the onion, season with salt and pepper and fry, stirring occasionally, until golden and softened, 8-10 mins. Stir in half the garlic and fry for 1 min more.

Pour the water for the bulgur (see pantry for amount) into a large saucepan and bring to the boil.

Stir in the bulgur, bring back up to the boil and simmer for 1 min. Pop a lid on the pan and remove from the heat. Leave to the side for 12-15 mins or until ready to serve.

3
Bake the Salmon

Meanwhile, lay the salmon fillets, skin-side down, onto a lined baking tray. Sprinkle over half the chermoula spice mix, drizzle over some oil and season with salt and pepper. 

When the oven is hot, roast the salmon on the top shelf until cooked through, 10-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw fish. It's cooked when opaque in the middle.

4
Fry the Courgette

While the salmon roasts, trim the courgette and slice into 1cm thick rounds.

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on high heat. When hot, add the courgette and cook until charred, 3-4 mins each side.

Add the remaining chermoula for the last min of frying and toss to coat the courgette in the spices.

Once cooked, season with salt and pepper, then remove from the heat.

5
All Together Now

While the courgette fries, finely chop the baby plum tomatoes.

Pick the mint leaves from their stalks and roughly chop (discard the stalks).

Add half the finely chopped tomatoes, remaining garlic and half the mint to the pickled onion and mix together.

Stir in the sugar for the salsa (see pantry for amount) and a drizzle of oil.

6
Serve

When the bulgur is cooked, fluff up the grains with a fork and stir through a good squeeze of lemon juice, lemon zest, the remaining baby plum tomatoes, remaining mint, spiced courgette and the salt (see pantry for amount).

Top with the chermoula salmon. Drizzle over the honey (see pantry for amount).

Spoon the matbucha inspired tomato salsa over everything. Finish by crumbling over the Greek style cheese.
