Tabbouleh Recipe

Total Time20 minutes
Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • 3 Bunches of parsley minced
  • ¼ Cup of fine bulgur wheat
  • 2 Medium tomatoes cored and finely diced
  • Half of an English or Persian cucumber finely diced
  • 4 Green onions finely chopped
  • 20 Mint leaves minced
  • Salt & Pepper to taste

For the dressing:

  • ½ Cup of extra virgin olive oil
  • ¼ Cup of lemon juice

Instructions

  • Prep the bulgur: place the bulgur in a bowl and cover it with ¼ cup of water. Let it sit for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the bulgur has absorbed the water and softened.
  • Prep the parsley and mint: Before we mince up the parsley and mint we want to make sure that they are washed and dried. You can do this by washing them and then leaving them to sit on some paper towels for 10 to 15 minutes. Or a better option is to wash them and then run them threw a salad spinner. Either way is fine. Once they are completely dry mince them as fine as you can and add them to a large mixing bowl. Set this aside.
  • Chop up the tomato, cucumber and green onion. Add them to the mixing bowl with the parsley and mint.
  • Make the dressing by mixing the lemon juice and olive oil in a separate bowl or cup.
  • Finish the salad: Add the bulgur and the salad dressing to the other ingredients and toss it all together.
  • Serve the tabbouleh immediately and enjoy!
