Remarks
You will notice that this recipe contains neither potatoes nor green beans, which to my mind aren't sufficiently Mediterranean to be included.
As with any salad recipe, the amounts are only approximate, so do adapt it to suit yourself.

Lebanese Tabbouleh

Roscoff loaf
This speciality bread from Roscoff (a small town in Brittany, northwest France) is enriched with onions, red wine and smoked sausage. What really sets this bread apart is that instead of water, the dough is made with red wine in which the sliced onions are left to soak overnight. The onions are drained next day and cooked before being mixed into the dough. This gives the bread a very distinctive flavour: onions, red win, smoked sausage.
