Tabbouleh Salad
My favourite salad by far and one that I make on a regular basis as it’s so quick yet so tasty. Traditionally this Middle Eastern dish is made with bulgar or cracked wheat but here I have used buckwheat as I like to use up the grains I have in the cupboard. Mildly spiced and an abundance of fresh herbs and a variety of textures and flavours make this colourful dish so appealing. Add anything you have to hand such as radishes, cucumber, to create your own unique tabbouleh.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Chop cucumber and mint and slice the cherry tomatoes and spring onions. To remove the skin from the vine tomatoes, make a cross at the base of the tomatoes and cover with boiling water for a few minutes. The skins should peel off easily. Remove the seeds and slice.
- 2
Rinse the bulgar wheat or buckwheat until the water runs clear then boil in salted water until cooked but not too soft. Rinse and allow to cool slightly.
- 3
Make the dressing by combining the lemon juice, extra-virgin olive oil and spices. Whisk together.
- 4
Add all the ingredients together and mix well. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Serve warm or cold with chicken, fish, seafood, kebabs or cold meats.

Tabbouleh Tabbouleh
This is one of the dishes prepared by my Lebanese friend. While it's troublesome to chop the parsley, I take the extra effort since I want to eat this tasty dish. According to my Lebanese and Syrian friends, American-style tabbouleh has too much bulghur. They imagine it's because it's too much trouble to chop the parsley! They even say that there's too much bulghur in my tabbouleh shown in the photo.Even though it takes extra effort, chop the parsley, mint, and green onion. Using a food processor will give the wrong taste and texture. The final product has a tendency to get watery, so be sure to thoroughly drain the excess water from the bulghur. Adjust the amount of tomatoes to taste. If using regular sized tomatoes, it's best to remove the seeds. It also tastes good with chopped cucumbers. Recipe by Mama Imani -

Japanese Tabbouleh with Mixed Grains Japanese Tabbouleh with Mixed Grains
I had a lot of millet which was originally for cooking with rice. I cooked the millet and I thought it looked just like cous cous. I made a marinade and checked the taste. When marinated, it was exactly like tabbouleh! The salad is very tasty already with lemon juice and olive oil, but I added a little soy sauce.Cooking time of mixed grains: Kibi-mochi for 5 minutes, amaranth for 8 minutes and quinoa for 10 minutes. You can freeze the leftovers. Check the taste before serving. Adjust with herb salt or plain salt. If you don't have a cake ring, put the salad in a small bowl. Recipe by kebeibiko
