This salad tasted very good if made an hour or so before serving. For best taste use only fresh parsley. It's flavor is tart so add the lime juice a bit at a time to suit your taste. I like to fill lettuce leaves with it and roll them up like a taco. Ingredients:
2 cups cracked bulgur wheat |
5 -6 firm ripe tomatoes or 5 -6 green tomatoes |
2 bunches fresh mint |
2 bunches fresh parsley |
1 bunch green onions or 1 bunch scallion |
5 -9 key limes, juice of |
1/4-1/2 cup olive oil (to taste) |
salt and black pepper |
tender lettuce leaf |
Directions:
1. Soak the bulgur wheat in enough water to cover for 30 minutes. Meanwhile finel chop the tomatoes, the parsley and mint and the green onions ( tender green and white parts). Drain the wheat and mix in a large bowl with the rest of the ingredients. Let rest in the refrigerator so the flavor develops. Serve with the lettuce leaves.
