Tabbouleh (Lebanese Salad) recipe

2/3 cup bulghur
4 thinly sliced scallions
2 cups coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley (cilantro)
1/4 cup shredded mint
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt

Place the bulghur in a small bowl. Add water to cover and leave to soak until tender, about 30 minutes.

Drain the bulghur through a cheesecloth-lined sieve. Gather up the cheesecloth around the bulghur and squeeze to extract as much water as possible.

Transfer the bulghur to a medium-size bowl and add the scallions, parsley, mint and tomatoes. Mix well.

To make the dressing, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, pepper and salt in a glass jar with a plastic screw-top lid and shake well to combine.

Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently until evenly coated. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Transfer to a bowl before serving.

Serves 8.
