2 teaspoons olive oil
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 cup vine-ripened tomatoes, diced

Tips:

  • Use fine bulgur: Fine bulgur will cook quickly and evenly, resulting in a light and fluffy tabbouleh.
  • Soak the bulgur: Soaking the bulgur in hot water before cooking will help to soften it and reduce the cooking time.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, mint, and cilantro, will add a bright and flavorful taste to the tabbouleh.
  • Don't overcook the bulgur: Overcooked bulgur will become mushy and lose its texture.
