Tabbouleh

Ingredients:

• 1 cup of fine bourghoul (ground wheat)
• 3 bunches of parsley
• 1 bunch of fresh mint
• 4 tomatoes
• 4 green onions or 1 white onion
• 6 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
Preparation:

• Wash the bourghoul in a deep dish by filling it with water and gently pouring out the water so that it will take away any impurity.
• Leave the bourghoul to soak in cold water for 30 mn.
• Finely dice the tomatoes and onion and chop the parsley and mint.
• Mix together the oil, salt and lemon for the sauce.
• Squeeze the borghoul between your hands to press out the water and mix all the ingredients together.
Tips:
The tabbouleh is best eaten with small lettuce leaves or better yet, fresh vine leaves rolled up in a cone shape.
