Pomegranate Tabbouleh with Mint and Lemon

This herb-forward tabbouleh is mostly finely chopped parsley and mint, with just enough fine bulgur to add body. A generous scattering of pomegranate seeds brings tart sweetness and crunch, while plenty of lemon juice and olive oil keep it bright. Scoop it up with crisp lettuce leaves.

Method 5 steps

  1. Rinse the bulgur, then soak it in the lemon juice for 20 minutes until tender with a slight chew.

  2. Wash and thoroughly dry the parsley and mint, then chop with a sharp knife rather than a processor so the herbs stay fluffy, not bruised.

  3. Combine the herbs, green onions and soaked bulgur with any remaining lemon juice in a bowl.

  4. Add the olive oil, allspice and 3/4 teaspoon salt and toss lightly.

  5. Fold in most of the pomegranate seeds, pile into a serving bowl and top with the rest plus mint sprigs. Tuck lettuce leaves alongside for scooping.
