Instructions
Normally this fresh salad from Lebanon is prepared with bulgur. But you can also use couscous instead.
- Pour hot water or broth over the bulgur and let it steep. Chop tomatoes, cucumber, onions, parsley and mint as finely as possible.
- Mix all ingredients in a bowl and season with salt and pepper, lemon juice and olive oil.
- For a personal touch you can add some raisins, dried cranberries or pomegranate seeds.
- Tabouleh is traditionally served in a salad leaf.
