Easy Tabbouleh Recipe

Method

  1. 1

    Rinse the bulgur wheat. Soak it in cold water for 10 minutes. Drain the excess water by using your hands to squeeze the water out. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Put the parsley, tomatoes, green onions, mint and bulgur wheat into a large bowl and gently mix.

  3. 3

    Mix the lemon juice and olive oil in small bowl and pour over the vegetable mixture in the large mixing bowl and mix well. Stir, taste, and adjust seasoning (add salt and pepper to taste).

  4. 4

    Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes if possible or serve immediately.

Notes

I like my tabbouleh extra lemony-adjust the salad to your tastes. Have that pita bread ready to test it out, add lemon or salt and pepper until you are satisfied. Serve your tabbouleh with pita or on a bed of romaine lettuce. Tabbouleh keeps well in a covered dish in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. I drain the excess liquid and will freshen it up with olive oil and lemon juice. Try adding a sice like sumar or za'atar to your tabbouleh.
