When food tastes good and is healthy for you, I would say that it makes a good dish. And here we have just that! If you never had tabbouli maybe you could give this tasty dish a try-you just might like it.
Ingredients
- Chill Time: Overnight shopping list
- ------------------------------- shopping list
- 3 cups of finely chopped flat-leaf parsley shopping list
- 1/2 cup of finely chopped fresh mint shopping list
- 4 or 5 finely chopped spring onions (with the green parts) shopping list
- 4 ripe, medium size tomatoes, chopped into small cubes shopping list
- 1 cup of medium burghul (cracked wheat) shopping list
- 1/2 tsp allspice shopping list
- 1/2 cup lemon juice shopping list
- 1/2 jalapeno pepper, de-seeded, chopped fine (optional) shopping list
- 5 TBS good olive oil shopping list
- salt and pepper shopping list
How to make it
- Rinse burghul several times and then soak in cold water for about twenty minutes.
- Chop the tomatoes (small dice).
- Clean the parsley and remove the large stems (you want mostly leaves). Chop fine.
- Put the burghul in a sieve to drain.
- Trim the spring onions, and chop them into 1/4" lengths.
- Put the drained burghul and tomato in a large mixing or serving bowl. Add salt, pepper, allspice, lemon juice, olive oil, mint, parsley, and optional minced jalapeno.
- Taste for seasoning. If too dry, you can add additional lemon juice.
- Toss well. Tabouli benefits from resting - you can cover the bowl with plastic wrap and leave in the refrigerator for a few hours or over night, tossing occasionally.
- Serve with cabbage or lettuce leaves - scoop some tabouli into a leaf and enjoy!
