Bulgur with Olive Oil and Lemon

Bulgur with Olive Oil and Lemon: Main Image

Quick Facts

Servings: 2
Bulgur is precooked cracked wheat that requires no further cooking beyond a good soak in boiling water. Use a very small amount of water, so the result will be fluffy and lightly chewy-and never mushy. Also, with less water, the natural nutty flavor of the grain comes through more strongly.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup bulgur
  • 1/2 cup boiling water
  • 1 Tbs extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 Tbs fresh lemon juice
  • pinch of salt
  • finely minced fresh parsley (optional)

Directions

  • Place the bulgur in a medium-small bowl.
  • Pour in the water and cover the bowl with a plate. Let stand 30 minutes
  • Stir in the olive oil and lemon juice, and add a little salt to taste.
  • Stir in the parsley and serve warm or at room temperature.

Serving Suggestion: You can prepare this the day before and reheat in a microwave-or you can make it after work and eat it the same day. It keeps for up to a week if tightly covered and refrigerated.
