Preparation Steps
1
Finely chop the onion, mince the garlic, and dice the carrot, zucchini, and bell pepper into evenly sized pieces.
2
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until translucent, then add the garlic.
3
Add the carrot and bell pepper and sauté for 5 minutes, or until slightly softened. Stir in the zucchini and green peas and cook for an additional 3 minutes.
4
Add the bulgur and stir to combine with the vegetables. Pour in the vegetable broth, season with salt and pepper, and stir well.
5
Bring to a simmer, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook for 15 minutes, or until the bulgur is tender and has absorbed the liquid. Check occasionally and add a little water if needed.
6
Once the bulgur is cooked, remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and fluff with a fork before serving.
