TABOULI SALAD
Make this tasty, Middle
Eastern dish well in advance
— the flavors improve with
age. For variation, serve on a
leaf of lettuce or as a stuffing
for fresh tomatoes, zucchini or
peppers. Garnish with spring
onions and fresh mint.
1 cup bulgur
4 cups boiling water
2 tbsp. olive oil
1 /4 cup fresh lemon juice
3 green onions with tops,
finely chopped
2 medium tomatoes,
finely chopped
1 /4 cup finely chopped
fresh mint or 1 tbsp.
dried mint
1 /4 cup finely chopped
fresh parsley
Freshly ground black
pepper to taste
In a large heat-proof bowl,
combine bulgur and boiling
water. Cover and allow to
stand for 1 hour, or until most
of the water is absorbed.
Drain bulgur, using cheese-
cloth to help extract most of
the moisture.
Combine oil and lemon
juice. Add to bulgur along
with onions, tomatoes, mint,
paisley and pepper. Gently
toss mixture with a fork and
refrigerate at least 1 hour to
allow flavors to blend. Serve
chilled or at room tempera-
ture.
Serves 6; Y2 cup per serving.
