Tabbouleh Salad
A Middle Eastern salad of bulghur wheat mixed with chopped tomatoes, onions, parsley, mint, olive oil, and lemon juice.
Ingredients
Before you start
A food processor will be very useful to chop parsley and mint.
Don't be surprised if after trimming and discarding the stems, you keep less than half the original parsley.
Method
- Soak the bulghur 10 min in warm water, making sure it remains covered with the water until the end. Drain and put into a salad bowl.
- Wash, spin-dry, and finely chop the parsley and mint leaves discarding the larger stems. Add to the salad bowl along with the finely chopped green onions, then Toss.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, lemon juice, and salt. Whisk the dressing until it is emulsified. Adjust the seasoning, pour into the salad bowl then toss well. Let stand 10 min.
- Dice the tomatoes discarding the seeds. Add to the salad, toss, and serve.
