About this recipe
Tabbouleh is a herb-forward salad where parsley is the star and bulgur plays a supporting role. The lemon and olive oil keep it fresh and light, making it a perfect side or a guilt-free snack.
Method
- 1
Rinse the fine bulgur, then soak it in a little warm water for 10 minutes until just tender.
- 2
Wash and thoroughly dry the parsley and mint, then chop them as finely as you can.
- 3
Finely dice the tomatoes and thinly slice the scallions.
- 4
Drain the bulgur well and gently squeeze out any excess water.
- 5
In a large bowl, combine the bulgur, parsley, mint, tomato and scallion.
- 6
Whisk the lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper, then pour over the salad.
- 7
Toss well, sprinkle with sumac and let it rest 10 minutes before serving.
Tips
- Dry the herbs completely so the salad stays crisp and does not turn soggy.
- Use fine bulgur; coarse bulgur needs longer soaking and changes the texture.
- Add the dressing just before serving to keep the parsley bright green.
