4 servings
- ¼ cup fine bulgur wheat
- 3 tbsp fresh lemon juice (from about 2 lemons), divided
- 2 bunches flat-leaf parsley (about 4 cups packed), stems removed, finely chopped
- ½ cup fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
- 3 medium ripe tomatoes (about 1 lb), seeded and finely diced
- 4 scallions (green tops only), thinly sliced
- 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- ½ tsp ground allspice
- ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
- ¾ tsp fine sea salt, or to taste
- ¼ tsp black pepper, or to taste
For serving
- romaine lettuce leaves, for scooping (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Place the bulgur in a fine-mesh strainer set over a bowl. Pour 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice over the bulgur and toss to coat, then let it soak at room temperature for 30 minutes, until the grains are just tender and have absorbed the juice. Fluff with a fork.

While the bulgur soaks, finely chop the parsley and mint on a large cutting board, working in batches if needed, until the pieces are very small and uniform — about 1/8 inch. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
