Cooking time : 40 Min
Level of difficulty : Low
Ingredients
8 servings
- ¾ cup bulgur wheat
- 1 cup onion, minced
- 1 tsp. allspice
- ¼ tsp. ground cumin
- ½ tsp. salt
- 1 cup chickpeas, finely chopped
- 1 cup cucumber, chopped
- 1 tsp. ground black pepper
- 2 cups parsley, finely chopped
- 2 cups scallions, finely chopped
- 4 ripe tomatoes, finely chopped
- ½ cup fresh black mint, chopped
- ½ cup lemon juice
- ½ cup olive oil
Preparation
Soak the wheat in just enough very hot to boiling water (leaving about ½″ above the surface of the wheat) in a covered pot for about ½ hour. Pour the grain into a colander and allow to drain, stirring a bit with a fork to help fluff up the kernels.
Combine all the remaining ingredients (except the lemon juice, olive oil, and greens) in a large bowl, and fold in the wheat, stirring gently. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Prior to serving, dress the salad with lemon juice and olive oil.
