Step by step recipe


Stage 1 - 20 min.
Lebanese Tabbouleh
Rinse 80 g bulgur wheat, put in a bowl and cover with cold water. Leave to soften for about 20 minutes.

Stage 2 - 10 min.
Lebanese Tabbouleh
Prepare 2 tomatoes and cut into small pieces after peeling.

Stage 3 - 10 min.
Lebanese Tabbouleh
Take the parsley leaves off their stalks (discard these) and chop.

Stage 4 - 5 min.
Lebanese Tabbouleh
Chop 1 spring onion (scallion) small and put into a salad bowl with the tomatoes and parsley.

Stage 5 - 3 min.
Lebanese Tabbouleh
Drain the bulgur wheat and add this to the bowl with 3 tablespoons lemon juice and 3 tablespoons olive oil.

Salt lightly, pepper and mix well.

Your Lebanese tabbouleh is ready.
Remarks
If you don't have spring onions, just use a small normal onion, red if possible.

Whether Lebanese tabbouleh should include mint or not is a good question: I don't think so, but you should go along with your own taste, of course.
Keeping: A few hours in the fridge, covered with plastic film.
