Bulgur is a form of wheat that is most commonly found in tabbouleh. This dish is very similar to tabbouleh, but sweeter, using dried cranberries where tomatoes normally serve to provide acid.
Ingredients
- 1 cup coarse-ground bulgur
- 2 cups chopped, peeled, cucumber
- 1 cup dried cranberries
- ⅓ cup thinly sliced green onion
- 1 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 1 tsp. grated lemon rind
- ⅓ cup fresh lemon juice
- ⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil
- ½ tsp. kosher salt
- ¾ tsp. freshly ground black pepper
Directions
1.) Place bulgur in a large bowl; cover with 2 cups boiling water. Let stand until liquid is absorbed (30 minutes). Fluff with a fork.
2.) Add cucumber and remaining ingredients; toss gently to combine.
