What is Tabbouleh?
It’s a Lebanese Salad with lemon and lots of herbs, more herbs than bulgur wheat. Although I didn’t use quite as much herbs. We still loved it. Apparently the parsley is the star of the dish with very little bulgur wheat. You can add more herbs in your salad.
Cooked in Vegetable Broth
I also added my own little twist and cooked my bulgur wheat in some vegetable broth. It is also an easy salad to make. It’s just the chopping up that requires a little time. Everything should be finely chopped although I kept my tomatoes a little bigger, only because my family loves tomatoes and I didn’t want it lost in the salad.
How to serve Tabbouleh
You can serve this salad as a side dish or alongside some Hummus and pita bread. Eaten all on it’s own is perfect too. Actually I even had the leftovers with some leftover roast potatoes, I know that sounds crazy but it was delicious.
Tabbouleh is a lemony, herby salad. However, I do feel this is actually something that can be adjusted according to your own taste. This salad consists of parsley, mint, garlic, tomatoes, cucumber and bulgur wheat. It can be refrigerated and eaten the next day too, it stays well. My family couldn’t get enough of this salad and every little bit was gobbled up. I sprinkled some of my homemade Dukkah over this salad and it was heavenly, you’ve got to try it. I’ve been asked to make this salad again soon, my 11-year-old says he loves it. I think if I added too much herbs he wouldn’t have enjoyed it as much so I am glad I stuck to my limited quantities.
