Finely chopped Lebanese parsley-and-mint salad with tomato, cucumber, fine bulgur, lemon and olive oil.

About Tabbouleh
Tabbouleh is a finely chopped Lebanese herb salad. Mama’s Lebanese Kitchen presents a family rendition centred on parsley, mint and tomatoes, with a small amount of fine bulgur and a lemony dressing.
White onion and cucumber add freshness and crunch. Olive oil softens the sharp lemon flavour, while the kitchen’s seven-spice mixture brings a subtle warm aromatic note to the green salad.
The finished salad is loose and leafy, dotted with tomato and fine wheat grains. Lettuce leaves are an offered accompaniment to this bright, herb-dominant serving.
