Another go at Taboulleh!

A couple of weeks ago, we had another try at making taboulleh. This time, we decided to use two cups of the bulgher wheat, and simmer it in vegetable stock (we used Oxo cubes) for 15 minutes

While the water was heating up, I helped chop up the six vine tomatoes.

Ah, the water's hot now. Let's dissolve the vegetable Oxo cubes and then put the Bulgher wheat in. We went back to chopping up the tomatoes, and then, a few minutes later we looked back at the wheat and it was about to do a volcano over the side of the pan!!! OH NO!!!
We quickly took the pan off the heat - but the bulgher wheat hadn't simmered for long enough, so we had to transfer it to a bigger pan!!

OK, so let's put the bigger pan on the heat to simmer...... phew!

Then, we went to chop up some Spring Onions. Andrea got these by mistake - she thought it had spring onions in, but when she checked the recipe later, it said Chives (which is not the same as spring onions!!) But we put these in anyway because I like chopping!!!

When the bulgher wheat stopped simmering, we drained it.

And put it in the big bowl.

And mixed it up with the other things in the bowl!!

Then we chopped Dill up.

And put that in the bowl!!!
Andrea said she bought parsley, corriander and mint

Oh, I wonder if this is corriander?? I've never seen corriander before....

Well, let's put it in!!

Oh, this is mint!! I've seen mint before!!! Choppey choppey!!

Mix that all in.....!

And the red onion! This one isn't brown and gooey in the middle like the last one...!

And we mix that all in too.

And the parsley! Choppey choppey!

And mix it all in!!

And finally, the juice of one and a half lemons, and some olive oil too!

And a bit of salt and pepper, mix it all in and put it in the fridge!

TA DAAAA!!!
