2 | Flakes | Garlic |
3/4 | Teacup | Lapsi (Broken wheat, Bulgur) * |
3 | Tablespoon | Lime Juice |
1 | Bunch | Mint Leaves (Pudina) |
1 | Tablespoon | Olive Oil |
4 | Nos | Onion Leeks |
1 | Bunch | Parsley |
1 | Teaspoon | Pepper Powder |

3 | Ball | Tomatoes |
Method
* Bulgur: see note in Glossary/Staple Foods
Cover bulgur (whole wheat) with warm water and soak for 15 minutes. Squeeze out excess water. Mix in the lemon juice, crushed garlic , salt and pepper. Allow this to rest until bulgur is soft, about 30 minutes.
Wash the mint and parsley well and dry it. Chop parsley (bagdoonis) and mint finely using a knife or food processor (if using a food processor it helps to use the pulse in order to prevent chopping to fine and turning the herbs to a puree).
Combine the mint, parsley, scallions (both white part and leaves - finely sliced( and tomatoes, sliced and bulgur mixture . Toss with olive oil as desired. Add lemon juice, salt or pepper as desired to adjust the taste.
Serve with small romaine lettuce leaves, use them as scoops.
