Bulgur salad - Tabbouleh recipe

Bulgur salad (also known as tabbouleh) is not just a simple little salad. It is actually a perfect side dish for meat and fish. The mint and lime transform it into a summer salad that goes particularly well with grilled meats. It can easily be the star salad of a barbecue party, but it won’t be out of place alongside Stuffed chicken breast: with creamy feta cheese and garlic zucchini either. 🙂

Ingredients

  • 100 g bulgur
  • 200 ml water
  • 2 coffee spoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 bunches of parsley
  • 10 fresh mint leaves
  • 4 spring onions
  • 2 large tomatoes
  • juice of 1 lime
  • 1 pinch ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Pour the water into a pot and bring it to a boil. Add the bulgur and a teaspoon of salt. Stir. Let it cook for 5 minutes, then remove from heat. Cover and let stand for 20-25 minutes. (Stir once or twice.) During this time, the bulgur will absorb the water and soften perfectly.
  • Chop the parsley and mint very finely. Thinly slice the spring onion. Cut the tomatoes into small cubes. Put everything in a large mixing bowl. Add the cooled bulgur. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and flavor with lime juice. Mix thoroughly.
  • Tip: It will taste even better if you leave it in the refrigerator for a while.
