Bulgur Wheat Tabbouleh Recipes

Steps:

• Place the bulghur in a large bowl, pour in the boiling water, and add the lemon juice, olive oil, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Stir, then allow to stand at room temperature for about 1 hour.
• Add the scallions, mint, parsley, cucumber, tomatoes, 2 teaspoons salt, and the pepper; mix well. Season, to taste, and serve or cover and refrigerate. The flavor will improve if the tabbouleh sits for a few hours.

Steps:

• Soak 120g fine bulgur wheat in cold water for 15 mins. Drain well, put in a bowl and mix with 75ml olive oil and 4 tbsp lemon juice. Cover and leave for 30 mins to soften. When ready to serve, deseed and finely chop 5 tomatoes and add with 4 finely sliced spring onions and a good handful each of chopped flat-leaf parsley and chopped mint leaves. Finally, stir in another 75ml olive oil and 4-5 tbsp lemon juice and season well.

Steps:

• Rinse the bulgur wheat in a sieve until the water runs clear. Drain well, then transfer to a bowl. Pour over 200ml boiling water, cover with cling film and leave to soak for 30 mins or so while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
• Keeping the parsley in a bunch, chop the leaves roughly. Don't worry about the inclusion of some of the stalks; this all adds to the flavour. Now do the same with the mint. Put the chopped herbs in a large bowl and add the tomato and spring onion.
• Thoroughly drain the bulgur, then add to herb mix, along with lemon juice and olive oil. Mix thoroughly, season and serve.

Steps:

• Pour boiling water over the bulgur to cover, and let sit for 1 hour.
• Drain, and fluff with a fork.
• Combine the bulgur and the cooked chickpeas.
• Add olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste. A good ratio is 2:1 olive oil : lemon juice.
• Cut each tomato in half through the stem. Cut off the stem, and scoop out the seeds. Chop the flesh into 1/4 inch cubes. Dice the cucumber into 1/4 cubs.
• Add the tomatoes, cucumber and the parsley to the bulgur. Stir to combine.
• Taste, and correct seasoning as necessary to taste.
• A nice addition is 1 oz of feta cheese, chopped very fine just before serving.

Steps:

• Boil the water and then pour over the bulgur wheat.
• Cover and allow to sit for about 1 hour.
• Add lime juice and olive oil, then refrigerate.
• Once chilled add the veggies and cumin.
• Stir gently and serve chilled.
• All vegetable amounts are appoximate. Use however much you prefer.
