Categories     main-dish

Time 3h25m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup bulgur wheat
1 1/2 cups boiling water
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (2 lemons)
1/4 cup good olive oil
Kosher salt
1 cup minced scallions, white and green parts (1 bunch)
1 cup chopped fresh mint leaves (1 bunch)
1 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley (1 bunch)
1 hothouse cucumber, unpeeled, seeded, and medium-diced
2 cups cherry tomatoes, cut in half
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3/4 pound feta cheese
4 pita breads, cut in half

Steps:

  • Place the bulgur in a large bowl, pour in the boiling water, and add the lemon juice, olive oil, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Stir, then allow to stand at room temperature for about an hour.
  • Add the scallions, mint, parsley, cucumber, tomatoes, 2 teaspoons salt, and the pepper; mix well. Season to taste and serve, or cover and refrigerate. The flavor will improve if the tabbouleh sits for a few hours.
  • Stuff the tabbouleh and feta into the pita breads.

STUFFED PITA MEXICAN STYLE (TORTA ARABE)



Stuffed Pita Mexican Style (Torta Arabe) image

These are regular menu items in all the respectable taco joints in Mexico. Ingredients are so obvious, nobody needs a write-down recipe with exact quantities. You just reproduce it. Many times I prefer these over regular tacos.
