This Fruited Tabbouleh with Walnuts and Feta is my take on the Middle Eastern classic dish. Tabbouleh is a classic Middle Eastern salad which is usually made of finely chopped parsley, tomatoes, mint, onion, olive oil and lemon juice. In my take on tabbouleh though, I add some extra ingredients like dried cranberries, walnuts and feta cheese.
I start by rehydrating the bulgur which takes about an hour. Once the bulgur is fluffy, I stir in the orange juice, oil, cucumber, onion, cranberries, parsley, mint, orange peel and salt. Then I refrigerate it for a few hours. Right before serving, I stir in some orange chunks and sprinkle feta cheese and walnuts on top. Yum!
To make my Fruited Tabbouleh with Walnuts and Feta, you will need the following:
Place bulgur in large heatproof bowl with boiling water. Stir well and then allow to stand for about 1 hour until all the water is absorbed and the bulgur is fluffy.
Add the orange juice, oil, cucumber, onion, cranberries, parsley, mint, orange peel and salt. Mix well.
Cover the tabbouleh and place in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours until chilled.
Just before you are ready to serve, stir in the chopped orange and sprinkle walnuts and feta cheese on top to garnish.
