Titli's Tips
Serve in a gratin dish or similar. Sprinkle with parsley and top off with a fried chilli.
If you have deboned some lamb you can add the bones to the pan for extra flavout before you simmer the contents for an hour. Remove them before you add the bulgur wheat.
This is a filling dish which needs no accompaniment.
