- Tabbouli
-
- 2 cups bulger wheat
- 8 cups boiling water
- 1 cup minced parsley
- 1/2 cup minced mint
- 1/2 cup minced scallion with 2 inches of the tops
- 1 1/2 cups chopped tomato
- 1/2 cup lemon juice
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 2 teaspoons salt
- freshly ground pepper
-
- Put the wheat into a large pot or mixing bowl and pour the water over
- it. Cover and let stand for two to three hours, or until the wheat is
- light and fluffy. Drain off excess water and shake the wheat in a

- Tabouli (variation on the Moosewood Cookbook)
- (Attention - those with overstocked lemons, I usually at *least*
- double the lemon juice in this...)
-
- In a large bowl, mix:
-
- 1 c course cracked wheat (bulgar wheat)
- 1 1/2 c boiling water
- 1/2 tsp salt
-
- Let stand about 20 minutes until the water is all soaked up.
-
- Mix together:
-
- juice of 1 lemon
- 1 large garlic clove (double this, of course! :-)
- 1/4 c good olive oil
- 1/2 tsp dried mint
-
- Stir this into the wheat, then refrigerate for about 3 hours.
-
- Toss in:
-
- 1 bunch scallions, w/greens, chopped
- 2 firm tomatoes (I use 3) diced
- 1 bunch parseley, fresh, chopped
- 1 can chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
- 1 green pepper, chopped
- 1-2 chopped english/japanese cucumbers
-
- Garnish w/ olives (if you want - I don't...) and feta cheese (lots!!).
-
- This makes a bunch - enough for side dishes & some lunches for 2 people
- for about 1/2 week. Refrigerate.
