Recipe Introduction
Serves 4
Total Time Start to Finish: 35 minutes
Removing the typical cucumber from tabbouleh leaves plenty of room for fresh honeydew or any cool, sweet melon in this summer-inspired departure.
List of Ingredients
1 cup boiling hot water
3/4 cup fine bulgur (5 oz)
1 1/2 cups loosely packed fresh mint leaves
1/3 cup olive oil
3 Tablespoons fresh lime juice
1½ lb piece firm-ripe honeydew, rind discarded, fruit cut into 1/2 inch pieces (1 cup)
1/2 cup very thinly sliced red onion (from 1 small)
1/2 teaspoon salt
Recipe
Pour boiling water over bulgur in a bowl, then cover bowl tightly and let stand 30 minutes. Drain in a sieve if watter.
Meanwhile, puree mint with oil in a blender until smooth.
Toss bulger with mint oil, lime juice, honeydew, onion and salt.
