TABBOULEH SALAD
Steps:
- Cover by 1 inch with cold water: 1/2 cup bulgur wheat.
- Soak for 20 minutes to plump the grains, then drain in a sieve. While the bulgur is soaking, prepare the other ingredients. Chop: 1 1/2 large bunches of parsley (about 1 1/2 cups, chopped), 1 bunch of mint (about 1/3 cup, chopped), 1 bunch of scallions, white and green parts (about 1 cup, chopped).
- Mix the herbs in a large bowl with: 2 ripe medium tomatoes, cored and diced small.
- With your hands, squeeze the soaked bulgur to remove as much water as possible and mix it into the chopped herbs and tomatoes, along with: Juice of 1 lemon, Salt, 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil.
- Mix well. Taste and add more salt, lemon juice, or oil if needed. Let rest for about 1 hour before serving to allow the bulgur to absorb the flavors. If you like, serve garnished with romaine leaves to use as scoops for eating the salad.
