How to Make Turkish bulgur salad
Ingredients:
2 Cups fine bulgur
1 Cup boiling water
1 Tablespoon tomato paste
1 Tablespoon red pepper paste
Tablespoon crushed garlic
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1 Lemon juice
2 Tablespoons of pomegranate paste
Salt and black pepper to taste
Quarter of a teaspoon of cumin
Quarter teaspoon ground chili
Quarter of a teaspoon of sumac
¼ Cup chopped green onions
¼ Cup chopped parsley
1 Tablespoon chopped fresh mint
2 Tomatoes cut into cubes
Method:
- Place the bulgur in a large mixing bowl. Pour boiling water on it. The water should cover the bulgur by about ¼ inch. If one cup of water is not enough, you can add more water, then set aside for 20-30 minutes until the bulgur is soft.
- We use a deep bowl to make the dressing, and mix the olive oil, tomato paste, hot sauce, lemon juice, pomegranate paste and spices.
- Add the bulgur to the dressing, and the vegetables, mix the ingredients well and serve the salad.
