Lebanese Style Tabouli image

My family thinks that Emily's Lebanese Deli in Minneapolis has the best tabouli. I found this recipe on a blog by MoiFrey (http://diningchezmoi.blogspot.com/2006/08/my-favorite-tabouli-tabouli-is.html) She worked on it for years and claimed to be like Emily's - it's a winner! I use my own method of draining and fluffing the bulgar and the results seem to be just fine. (See blog for original method.)

Time 3h

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup Bulgar wheat, dry
2 -3 cups cold water
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 cup fresh lemon or 1/4 cup lime juice
1 teaspoon fresh garlic, crushed
1/2 teaspoon dried mint
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/8 cup olive oil
fresh black pepper
1 cup parsley, freshly chopped and packed
1/2 cup scallion, chopped (include the greens)
2 medium tomatoes, diced

Steps:

  • Prepare the bulgur by soaking it for 2-3 hours in cold water.
  • When it reaches the "al dente" stage, drain it thoroughly in a fine-mesh strainer. While preparing the other ingredients, let the damp wheat sit for another hour, stirring and tossing it from time to time, to fluff it and dry it.
  • Add the lemon juice, garlic, oil, mint and seasonings and mix thoroughly.
  • Add the chopped parsley and onions and toss everything together.
  • Just before serving, add the chopped tomatoes. Correct the seasonings.

I'm not a big fan of tomatoes, but I love this tabouli. The tomatoes add a nice sweetness and acidity that really balances out the other flavors.

This tabouli is the perfect way to use up leftover parsley. I always have a bunch of parsley in my fridge, and this is a great way to use it up.
