Cilantro Tabbouleh With Dried Cranberries 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:

• Core and coarsely chop cauliflower. In batches, pulse cauliflower in a food processor until it resembles rice (do not overprocess). Transfer to a large bowl. Add remaining ingredients to food processor; pulse until finely chopped. Add to cauliflower; toss to combine. Refrigerate 1 hour before serving to allow flavors to blend.

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a saucepan, turn off the heat, and stir in the bulgur wheat. Cover and let sit for 30 minutes to absorb water. Strain off any liquid left unabsorbed, if necessary.
• Place the bulgur wheat in a large salad bowl, and lightly toss with the tomatoes, green onions, cilantro, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, cumin, pepper, and salt until thoroughly combined. Refrigerate the salad for at least 3 hours to blend the flavors; serve cold.

Steps:

• Boil the kettle. Put the bulgur wheat in a sieve and rinse with cold water until the water runs clear. Drain well and transfer to a mixing bowl. Pour over 200ml boiling water and 1 tbsp olive oil, cover with a plate and leave to soak for 30 mins. Meanwhile, put the couscous into a second mixing bowl with 1 tbsp olive oil, just cover with boiling water, then cover with a plate and leave to stand for 5-10 mins.
• Once the bulgur wheat and couscous are ready, put them in a mixing bowl and fluff up the grains with a fork. Stir through the nuts and dried fruit, too.
• Whisk together the lemon zest and juice, herbs, remaining olive oil and the garlic. Pour over the grains, nuts and fruit, and stir everything together well with some seasoning. Transfer to a serving plate, scatter with the crumbled feta, and serve with grilled lamb or pork chops, if you like.

Steps:

• Prepare a large saucepan with a quick shot of cooking spray. Place over medium heat.
• Add the diced shallots and cook, stirring frequently, about 3 minutes until the shallots begin to soften. Add stock and bring to a boil. Once boiling, add the bulgar and reduce to a low simmer. Cover and cook for 15 minutes. Transfer the cooked bulgar to a bowl and chill for three hours.
• In a second bowl, combine the cucumbers, chopped cilantro, cranberries, pepper and lime zest. Combine this mix with the chilled bulgar mixing well until it is fully incorporated.
• Serve with lime wedges.
• Note: This keeps well in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
