Time 3h35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 ¼ cups water
1 cup bulgur wheat
2 tomatoes, seeded and finely chopped
2 green onions, sliced into thin slivers
¾ cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
2 cloves garlic, minced, or to taste
2 lemons, juiced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon freshly cracked pepper
salt to taste

Steps:

  • Bring water to a boil in a saucepan, turn off the heat, and stir in the bulgur wheat. Cover and let sit for 30 minutes to absorb water. Strain off any liquid left unabsorbed, if necessary.
  • Place the bulgur wheat in a large salad bowl, and lightly toss with the tomatoes, green onions, cilantro, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, cumin, pepper, and salt until thoroughly combined. Refrigerate the salad for at least 3 hours to blend the flavors; serve cold.

This tabouli is a great way to use up leftover herbs. I always have a bunch of cilantro and parsley in my fridge, so this is a great way to use them up.
