Tabbouleh, a wonderful salad that includes all the great ingredients of the Mediterranean: tomatoes, cucumbers. herbs (parsley, mint), olive oil and lemon.
Add bulgur and salt in boiling water & let stand for 15 minutes (do not boil). Drain excess water.
Chop the tomatoes, cucumbers, parsley, mint, onion and mix well in a large bowl.
Add the bulgur and mix well. Add the dry mint, salt, pepper, olive oil and lemon and mix well. Sophie recommends to mix with your hands, and I agree, as it is a common way of really making sure all the ingredients are thoroughly mixed together.
Cover the bowl and let it sit for at least 2-3 hours, although overnight is better.
