Instructions
How to make Kisir(Turkish Bulgur Salad)
- Put the fine bulgur into a deep and wide bowl, pour hot water over it, and mix. Cover and set aside until the bulgur absorbs the water.
- Finely dice the tomatoes and onion. Set aside.
- Finely chop the parsley and spring onions, and coarsely chop the lettuce. Set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet, add the diced onion and sauté until translucent.
- Add the tomato paste, red pepper flakes, and cumin to the sautéed onion, and continue sautéing for a few more minutes. Set it aside and let it cool.
- Add the finely chopped parsley, spring onions, onion, and tomato paste mixture to the bulgur, which will now have absorbed the water and be swollen.
- Then pour the pomegranate molasses and lemon juice into the bowl and season with salt and pepper. Mix for about 5-6 minutes until the flavor of all the ingredients is taken up by the bulgur.
- Finally, add the tomatoes and lettuce, mix, and serve cold.
