    Tabbouli / Tabouli / Tabbouleh Salad (Parsley Salad),A Lebanese friend showed me how to make this back in 1996. It’s my mother-in-laws favourite salad and I normally make it on request specially for her. I prefer flat leaf fresh parsley (also known as Italian Parsley) as it’s better texture but curly leaf is alright. I normally buy the parsley and spring onions from the supper market prepacked bunches so if your measurements are slightly more or less it’s alright, it doesn’t have to be exact. The bourghul also soaks a lot of the moisture and I like Tabbouli to be moist not dried that’s why there is a lot of lemons and olive oil. Like everything we cook it’s all about the palate and who we are cooking for so if you choose to put less oil and lemons then it’s ok. Salt and black pepper to taste, so feel free to add less but not to much. The secret to good Tabbouli is that everything should be finely chopped. Enjoy,Does anyone add chopped fresh mint leaves? My recipe from a Lebanese friend includes a handful of chopped mint leaves added at the last minute.,Good Recipe! use cooked Quinoa instead of Bulgur for Gluten Free alternative and it comes out great!
