Categories     Appetizer

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 8

⅓ cup extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons lemon juice
¼ cup extra fine bulgur wheat
2 bunches parsley (about 2 cups chopped)
1-2 vine-ripe firm tomatoes
2 green onions (both green and white part)
¼ cup fresh mint leaves (optional)
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil and lemon juice until well combined. Then add the bulgur to the dressing and let it soak until it is soft and plumped, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the vegetables by washing, drying thoroughly and finely chopping them. When preparing the tomatoes, it helps to use a colander to drain the excess juice, which you can use in another recipe at a later time.
  • Place the chopped vegetables in a large bowl. Add the optional mint. Season with salt and pepper. Then pour the bulgur and dressing mixture over. Gently toss to combine.
  • Serve at room temperature or cold, with lettuce if desired.

TABBOULI / TABOULI / TABBOULEH SALAD (PARSLEY SALAD)



Tabbouli / Tabouli / Tabbouleh Salad (Parsley Salad) image

A Lebanese friend showed me how to make this back in 1996. It's my mother-in-laws favourite salad and I normally make it on request specially for her. I prefer flat leaf fresh parsley (also known as Italian Parsley) as it's better texture but curly leaf is alright. I normally buy the parsley and spring onions from the supper market prepacked bunches so if your measurements are slightly more or less it's alright, it doesn't have to be exact. The bourghul also soaks a lot of the moisture and I like Tabbouli to be moist not dried that's why there is a lot of lemons and olive oil. Like everything we cook it's all about the palate and who we are cooking for so if you choose to put less oil and lemons then it's ok. Salt and black pepper to taste, so feel free to add less but not to much. The secret to good Tabbouli is that everything should be finely chopped. Enjoy

LEBANESE TABBOULEH



Lebanese Tabbouleh image

We think of tabbouleh as a bulgur salad with lots of parsley and mint. But real Lebanese tabbouleh is a lemony herb salad with a little bit of fine bulgur, an edible garden that you can scoop up with romaine lettuce heart leaves or simply eat with a fork.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     easy, quick, salads and dressings, appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 6 appetizer spread servings, 4 salad servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup fine bulgur wheat
1 small garlic clove, minced (optional)
Juice of 2 large lemons, to taste
3 cups chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley (from 3 large bunches)
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
1/2 pound ripe tomatoes, very finely chopped
1 bunch scallions, finely chopped
Salt, preferably kosher salt, to taste
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 romaine lettuce heart, leaves separated, washed and dried

Steps:

  • Place the bulgur in a bowl, and cover with water by 1/2 inch. Soak for 20 minutes, until slightly softened. Drain through a cheesecloth-lined strainer, and press the bulgur against the strainer to squeeze out excess water. Transfer to a large bowl, and toss with the garlic, lemon juice, parsley, mint, tomatoes, scallions and salt. Leave at room temperature or in the refrigerator for two to three hours, so that the bulgur can continue to absorb liquid and swell.
  • Add the olive oil, toss together, taste and adjust seasonings. Serve with lettuce leaves.

TABOULI (LEBANESE BULGHUR, PARSLEY, AND MINT SALAD)



Tabouli (Lebanese Bulghur, Parsley, and Mint Salad) image

Tabouli is a Lebanese salad and is often served as part of a meza appetizer assortment, as well as on its own. This is my cousin's recipe, and according to her, you NEVER put garlic in tabouli, and there is no place in it for celery, cucumber, or any of the myriad of other ingredients with which some people like to adulterate it "to make it different". I agree with her wholeheartedly. This doesn't need anything else; just season it well with the salt, pepper, lemon, and olive oil.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 1h

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup medium Bulgar wheat (#2)
2 -3 bunches parsley, stemmed and chopped, depending on size
1 -2 bunch fresh mint leaves, finely chopped, depending on size, more to taste
2 bunches green onions, chopped
4 -5 ripe firm tomatoes, partially seeded and chopped
3 -5 lemons, juice of, to taste
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil, to taste
salt & fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • This recipe is a breeze if you have a food processor, a little more work if you don't.
  • If using a processor, chop parsley and mint together, using a pulsing action, to ensure that you don't end up pureeing them, and remove to a bowl.
  • Repeat with green onions, and add it bowl.
  • Chop tomatoes, preferably by hand, into about 1/4" dice, and add to bowl.
  • If you are making this for company, you might want to chop everything by hand.
  • It makes a much prettier dish than when made in the processor, but I never bother when it is for personal consumption; I just take a little care when using the processor.
  • Wash bulghur thoroughly, drain, and soak in fresh hot water for about 1 hour.
  • Drain and squeeze as dry as possible, and combine with vegetables.
  • Drizzle with lemon juice and olive oil.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste, and toss thoroughly.
  • You can be quite generous with the pepper.
  • Refrigerate for about an hour, taste, and adjust salt and pepper.
  • In addition to serving a a salad or part of a meza appetizer assortment, it is also good as dressing on a falafel or lamb sandwich in pita bread.

TABBOULI / TABOULI / TABBOULEH SALAD (GLUTEN FREE)



Tabbouli / Tabouli / Tabbouleh Salad (Gluten Free) image

I love Tabbouli but I think I'm sensitive to gluten/wheat, so the traditional cracked wheat version is off-limits. I promise that with this recipe, you wow't event miss the wheat! The substitute is riced cauliflower! So, it's packed with vegetables and gluten-free deliciousness.

Categories     Free Of...

Time 1h5m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 large bunch fresh curly-leaf parsley
1 medium sweet white onion
3 large tomatoes
1 large head cauliflower
2 -3 tablespoons dried mint
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 olive oil
1/4 lemon juice

Steps:

  • Prepare the cauliflower: Grate the cauliflower until it's "riced" or you may use a food processor Ninja and pulse the cauliflower in batches 10-15 times for 1.5 seconds to rice it. Place the riced cauliflower in a microwave safe dish and microwave cook for 6-7 minutes on high until soft but not mushy. Set aside and let it cool.
  • Prepare the parsley: pull the curly parsley from the stem and rinse thoroughly. Use salad spinner to spin the parsley dry, repeating 2-3 times and dumping water out each time. Chop parsley finely by hand or use Ninja or food processor carefully on pulse to chop the parsley finely. (Do not chop on high speed as it will juice the parsley and make it mushy.) Dump the parsley into a very large bowl that will be used to mix all ingredients.
  • Chop the tomatoes and onions: Finely chop the tomatoes and onions. Place the tomatoes in a salad spinner or colander and swish around to remove excess moisture, juice and seeds before adding to parsley. Add chopped onions and tomatoes to parsley mixture.
  • Mix and Dress: Add cooled, riced cauliflower to parsley mixture. Top with olive oil, salt, lemon juice and dried mint and mix thoroughly with a large slotted spoon. Taste and adjust seasonings as desired. Can be served immediately, but it is best made ahead and allowed to chill for a few hours. Better as the days go by!
