Beetroot Apple Broad Bean Tabbouleh Recipes

Steps:

• Put the kettle on to boil. Tip the grains into a fine mesh sieve, pour over a kettleful of boiling water, over the sink, leave to drain, then tip into a large bowl. Put the beetroot, most of the herbs, the olive oil, lemon juice and 5-6 tbsp cold water in a food processor and blitz until smooth. Season lightly, adding a splash more water to loosen if needed. Mix into the bowl of grains and stir until they are well-coated.
• Toss the tomatoes, onion, cucumber and lemon zest into the grain mixture until combined. Season to taste. Divide between two plates, sprinkle with more herbs and drizzle with a little olive oil.

Steps:

• Put the herbs, radishes and beetroot in a food processor and blitz until chopped into small pieces. Stir in the rest of the ingredients, adding the lemon juice a bit at a time to taste - you may not need all of it. Season, then place on a large platter topped with a few parsley leaves, if you like, and serve straight away.

Steps:

• In a large bowl stir together bulgur and boiling-hot water. Let mixture stand, covered, 30 minutes.
• While bulgur is standing, trim beets (reserve greens for another use) and peel. Using a mandoline or very sharp knife separately cut beets and apple into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Separately cut beet and apple slices into 1-inch-long julienne strips. In a blender or food processor puree basil with oil, lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste until smooth.
• Fluff bulgur with a fork. Add beets, apple, and about 1/4 cup dressing, tossing to combine.
• Serve tabbouleh with remaining dressing on the side.

Steps:

• Put the beetroot, apples, celery, walnuts and parsley in a bowl. Whisk together the walnut oil, vinegar and some seasoning, pour over the beetroot salad and mix well. Divide between small glasses or teacups and chill until ready to serve. Can be made up to 3 hrs ahead.
