  • 3 cups reduced salt vegetable stock
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
  • 1 lemon, squeezed
  • 1 red chilli, finely chopped

Dressing

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 180C fan-forced. Line a baking tray with baking paper. 
  2. To cook the freekah, place freekah and stock in a saucepan and bring to the boil. Reduce to a simmer and cover with a lid. Cook for approximately a further 30 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Drain and set aside.
  3. Meanwhile, place the salmon on a baking tray and brush generously with harissa paste. Grill for 10-12 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through. 
  4. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add garlic, kale and chilli and a squeeze of lemon and a pinch of salt. Sautee for 5-6 minutes.
  5. Combine freekeh and kale in a bowl. Once the salmon has finished cooking add to the bowl. Option to break into chunks.
  6. Pour dressing over the top. Sprinkle with spring onion and coriander. Season and toss well.
