Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/3 cups medium-grind bulgur
Coarse salt and ground pepper
2 2/3 cups boiling water
1 pint grape tomatoes, halved
1 1/2 cups loosely packed fresh flat-leaf parsley, coarsely chopped
2 small shallots, minced
1/4 cup red-wine vinegar
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons olive oil
4 ounces fresh goat cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • In a heatproof bowl, combine bulgur, 1 teaspoon salt, and the boiling water. Cover and let stand until tender but slightly chewy, about 30 minutes.
  • Drain bulgur in a fine sieve, pressing to remove liquid; return to bowl. Add tomatoes, parsley, shallots, vinegar, and oil. Season with salt and pepper, and toss. Serve topped with cheese.
