Bulgur Salad With Lemon Radishes And Snap Peas Recipes

BULGUR SALAD WITH CUCUMBERS, RED PEPPERS, CHICK PEAS, LEMON & DILL

Steps:

• Bring a kettle of water to a boil. Place the bulgur in a large bowl with ½ teaspoon salt and 1¼ cups boiling water. Cover the bowl tightly with saran wrap and let sit for 15-30 minutes, or until all of the water is absorbed. Let cool, then fluff with a fork.
• Meanwhile, to soften the bite of the raw onions, place them in a small bowl and cover with cold water. Let sit for ten minutes, and then drain. (Feel free to skip this step if you don't mind the strong taste of raw onions.)
• In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, sugar, pepper, and remaining 1 teaspoon salt. Add the cooled bulgur, onion, bell pepper, cucumber, dill, parsley, and chick peas. Toss well, then taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Chill until ready to serve or up to two days. Serve cold or room temperature.

• Add the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, dill, chives, mint, oil, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to a large bowl and whisk to combine. Set aside.
• Drain the snap peas and add them to the bowl with the dressing. Add the radishes to the bowl and toss well to thoroughly coat the vegetables in the dressing.
