Common in European, Middle Eastern and Indian cuisine, Bulgur is derived from wheat and makes a great base for mains or appetizers.
Preparation time: About 20 minutes.
Difficulty: Easy
Calories per serving: Unspecified
Ingredients for 4 people:
250g of bulgur (cracked wheat)
3 peppers (red, Turkish, pointed)
1 bunch of parsley, smooth
½ bunch of spring onions
1 medium red onion
½ a tube of tomato paste
4 tablespoons of mild oil (e.g. sunflower)
Salt
Place the bulgur wheat in a large bowl, fill with hot water until the wheat grains are covered. Make sure to drain excess water or the Kisir will be soaked through in an instant. If needs be, just add some more wheat grains after the mixture has soaked. Season with plenty of salt and leave to stand for about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, cut up peppers and onions, cut spring onions into thin rings and chop the parsley. Add the oil and tomato paste and stir.
Season with salt if necessary. Mix the remaining ingredients.
Tastes great as a side dish or as a salad to go with a barbecue. If you’re throwing a party, you can serve smaller portions on iceberg lettuce leaves with 1/8 lemon slices. It also tastes great on its own.
