Steps:
- Place freekeh in a bowl and cover with cold water. Set aside.
- Combine lamb, onion, pepper, paprika, cinnamon, and salt in a pot. Add oil, 1/2 of the cilantro, 1/2 of the mint, and celery and simmer over low heat for 15 minutes. Stir in chickpeas and cover with a little water. Bring to a gentle simmer. Add tomato paste, zucchini, and carrot and mix well.
- Set a steamer over the pot and add tomatoes. Cover and steam tomatoes until soft, about 5 minutes. Crush tomatoes using a wooden spoon so pulp drips into the soup. Discard leftover tomato peels. Add potato and enough water to cover. Simmer until potato is soft, about 10 minutes.
- Drain freekeh and add to the soup. Simmer until soft, about 15 minutes. Remove celery stalk. Sprinkle soup with remaining cilantro and mint before serving.

CHORBA FRIK
This is absolutely my favourite Algerian dish (good thing to as we eat this for virtually every day for a month each year). Chorba Frik served with Borek is commonly eaten during Ramadan after breaking the fast with three dates and fermented milk but i can eat this frequently all year round! Normally Chorba contains diced Lamb but considering my husbands cholesterol i like to omit it. Frik is known as crushed wheat or Green wheat and can be hard to find if you dont have access to an Algerian butcher/shop. Some branches of Tesco's sell it (East End Crushed Wheat) , i believe it's in the Indian/Ethnic section.

Steps:
- Gently fry the onion until soft. Add the Garlic cook for another 2 mins then add the Cayenne and Paprika and cook for another minute.
- Add the tomato puree and stock and bring to the boil, add the Frik and simmer covered for 30 mins until Frik is soft. (I like to then wizz with a blender) Add the chickpeas and herbs and cook for a few mins until chickpeas are heated.
- Add a squeeze of lemon and serve with the Borek (see separate recipes)...... Bliss.

- In a cooking pot, add one tablespoon of butter, oil and the 5 pieces of lamb; saute over low heat for 2 minutes.Because when you saute meat with oil and butter it makes it more delicious.In the image I didn’t cut the meat into pieces, because I cut it after cooking.
- After 2 minutes add grated onion, 3 tomatoes, tomato paste and half the cilantro leaves not all of them.
- Add chickpeas. Then add salt, black pepper, paprika and bay leaf. Saute over low heat for about 5 m with stirring
