Marinated duck salad with bulghur wheat

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

The contrast of sweet citrus, spicy chilli, earthy grains, tangy basil and tender duck is marvellous. This seems like an ambitious, unusual dish but, if you buy the ingredients in advance, it comes together quickly. It's worth the effort!

Middle Eastern roast guinea fowl with saffron couscous

Recipe by: Maggie Pannell

Be the first to review it!

Guinea fowl, in season in autumn and winter, tastes like a cross between chicken and turkey, and is very lean. Here it's roasted with a fig and pistachio couscous stuffing and basted with a spicy lemon marinade to keep the meat deliciously moist. A leafy salad with fresh oranges makes a great side dish.

Enjoy the fragrant flavours of coriander and mint in this North African-inspired salad, that can be largely prepared ahead. Lamb is a good source of protein, as well as B vitamins, iron and zinc.
