Tabouli
Ingredients
2 cucumbers
2 tomatoes
4 spring onions, green only
1 bunch of parsley
1⁄2 bunch fresh mint
2 tablespoons burgul, fine grade
1/2 cup olive oil, best quality
Juice of 2 lemons, freshly squeezed only. (Do not use store-bought lemon juice).
Directions
• Cut the cucumbers, tomatoes, and onion into cubes as small as possible.
• Remove the stalks of the parsley then chop the parsley and mint very finely. Mix all of the vegetables.
• Soak the bulgur in a little water with a little salt. Wait 5 minutes and add the burgul to the vegetables.
• Season with olive oil and lemon juice. Add salt and black pepper to taste and mix well.
• Prepare salad at least 15 minutes before serving, so the flavors come together and the bulger can continue to soften and absorb the liquids.
Note: If you are serving the salad more than two hours after its completion, it is advised to refrigerate the salad.
