Instructions
Bulgur salad: Pour bulgur in a bowl and cover the bulgur freely with boiling water. Allow the bulgur to rest, covered, for approx. 20 min. Drain well in a sieve. Remove stalk, core, and floret from the pears and cut the pears into small cubes. Carefully mix the warm bulgur with pears, apricots, parsley, lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper. Carefully fold in cheese and olives – season. Allow the salad to rest while preparing the meat.
Tenderloin: Sprinkle the meat with salt and pepper. Combine butter and garlic and spread the mixture evenly on the meat. Wrap the tenderloin in ham and place the “roast” in a small roasting pan, with the joints downwards. Roast the meat in the middle of the oven.
Serving: The bread can we warmed up in the heated oven. Slice the meat and arrange on a plate together with some of the bulgur salad. Serve the rest of the salad in a bowl.
Tip: Tenderloin can be replaced by 400 g / 14 oz chicken meat.
