I like cooking with bulgur wheat as an alternative to the usual rice and pasta. This comes from a magazine and is nice and fresh. Great served with grilled shell fish or chicken. Ingredients:
150 g bulgur wheat |
225 g watercress leaves, 2/3 chopped very fine |
1 cucumber, finely diced |
4 plum tomatoes, chopped roughly |
6 spring onions, sliced |
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil |
1 lemon, juice of |
salt, to taste |
pepper, to taste |
Directions:
1. Cook the bulgur wheat until tender. 2. Drain and squeeze as much water as possible out. 3. Place in a large bowl, add all remaining ingredients, just keep the 1/3 of the watercress that's not chopped to one side. 4. Mix well and season to taste. 5. Toss the remaining watercress through the salad. |
