Why it works
Who doesn't love a good Donner kebab? But let's be honest, one often just isn't enough to feed the whole family without breaking the bank. This hack takes that delicious takeaway treat and transforms it into a vibrant, hearty, and seriously satisfying meal for four, making your money go so much further!
Method
Bulgur Base
Get your bulgur going first! Pop 150g bulgur wheat into a heatproof bowl. Pour over 300ml boiling water, stir, cover tightly with a plate or cling film, and leave for 10-15 minutes until all the water is absorbed and it's fluffy. Give it a good fork-through before serving. Proper easy!
Pepper Power
While the bulgur's doing its thing, chop your bell peppers into nice strips or chunks. Heat a glug of oil in a frying pan over a medium-high heat. Toss in the peppers and sauté for 5-7 minutes until they're tender-crisp and slightly charred. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Kebab Warm-Up
If your kebab meat is cold (which it probably will be by now!), gently warm it through in a separate pan over a medium heat or zap it in the microwave for a minute or two. You want it piping hot. If it came with salad, set that aside to add fresh at the end, or pop it in with the peppers if you fancy!
Assemble Your Bowls
Divide the fluffy bulgur wheat between four serving bowls. Spoon a generous amount of the warmed kebab meat over the bulgur. Next, pile on those vibrant, sautéed bell peppers. Looking good already, eh?
The Greek Yogurt Finish
Dollop a big spoonful of cooling Greek yogurt onto each bowl – it cuts through the richness of the kebab a treat! If your kebab came with chilli or garlic sauce, drizzle a little over the top too for an extra kick. A sprinkle of fresh parsley or mint (if you have it) would be the business! Serve up and watch those happy faces – sorted!
