Cabbage Tabbouleh image

This salad is crunchy, herby, cooling, and refreshing. To add some heat between bites, serve fresh green chiles for nibbling alongside.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup bulgur (not quick-cooking)
1/4 medium head of green cabbage, cored, very thinly sliced (about 4 cups)
1/2 medium white onion, very thinly sliced
2 cups very finely chopped parsley
1 cup mint leaves, torn if large
1 tsp. ground allspice
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
Kosher salt
Fresh green chiles (optional)

Steps:

  • Place bulgur in a small bowl; pour in boiling water to cover by 2". Let soak until tender, about 50 minutes; drain.
  • Toss cabbage, onion, parsley, mint, allspice, and half of the bulgur in a large bowl. Drizzle olive oil and lemon juice over tabbouleh and season with salt; toss again to combine.
  • Transfer tabbouleh to a platter and sprinkle with remaining bulgur. Serve with chiles alongside if desired (they're meant to add some heat in between bites of the cooling tabbouleh).
