Tabbouleh - Mediterranean Recipe

Tabbouleh

🌍 Mediterranean, Lebanon Difficulty: ●●●○○

Authentic Lebanese tabbouleh is predominantly parsley; the "bulgur-forward" Western version is a misinterpretation.

Ingredients

• 50g fine bulgur
• 4 large bunches flat-leaf parsley
• 1 bunch mint
• 4 ripe tomatoes diced
• 1 red onion finely diced
• juice of 2–3 lemons
• 60ml olive oil
• salt
• black pepper

Method

1. Soaking — Soak bulgur in lemon juice 30 min until softened (no cooking needed for fine bulgur).
2. Step 2 — Finely chop parsley and mint (this is the majority of the salad).
3. Combining — Combine all ingredients, toss well. Dress generously with more lemon.
4. Resting — Rest 20 min. Serve with romaine lettuce leaves as scoops.
