🇱🇧 Lebanon recipe

Tabbouleh

True Lebanese tabbouleh is a parsley salad with a touch of bulgur, not a bulgur salad with a touch of parsley. It is a mountain of finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley bound together with fine bulgur wheat, juicy ripe tomatoes, sharp spring onions, bright lemon juice, and fruity olive oil.
