Bulgur Salad With Onion Feta Recipes

Steps:

• Pour 3 cups boiling water over the bulgur in a large bowl. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and let sit until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and let cool.
• Meanwhile, make the dressing: Whisk the lemon zest and juice, vinegar, oregano, sugar and a pinch each of salt and pepper in a large bowl until smooth. Slowly whisk in the olive oil. Add the cucumbers, tomatoes, red onion and olives; season with salt and pepper and toss. Let sit 20 minutes.
• Add the bulgur, feta, mint and parsley to the vegetables. Season with salt and pepper and toss. Top each serving with the pepperoncini.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix bulgur with 1/8 teaspoon salt and 1/2 cup boiling water. Cover; let sit until bulgur is tender (but still slightly chewy), about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small dry skillet over very low heat, toast pine nuts, tossing constantly, until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice and oil. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
• Drain bulgur in a fine-mesh sieve, pressing to remove excess liquid; return to bowl. Add feta, shallot, parsley, cucumber, and half the dressing; season with salt and pepper. In another bowl, toss lettuce with remaining dressing. Top with bulgur mixture and pine nuts.

Steps:

• Cook onion in oil in a 2-quart saucepan over moderate heat until softened. Stir in bulgur and chile flakes until coated. Add tomato, sugar, and water and bring to a boil. Simmer, covered, until bulgur is tender and creamy (like risotto), about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, 3 minutes. Stir in 1/2 cup feta and season with salt. Top with remaining cup feta.

Steps:

• Bring 2 cups water to boil in medium saucepan. Remove from heat; add bulgur and salt and stir to blend. Cover and let stand until bulgur is just tender, about 20 minutes. Drain well, pressing to extract excess water. Transfer bulgur to large bowl; cool. Mix in remaining ingredients. Season with salt and pepper and serve.
• *Also called cracked wheat; available at natural foods stores and supermarkets.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring the broth, lemon juice, onion powder, and garlic powder barely to a simmer. Remove from heat and let cool five minutes.
• Add the bulgur, stirring well to combine. Let stand until the bulgur has absorbed all the liquid and feels dry, about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, oregano, salt and pepper.
• Add the chickpeas, olives and cheese, tossing well to combine.
• Season with additional salt and pepper if necessary.
• Cover and refrigerate a minimum of 2 hours or up to 2 days and serve chilled or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Wash quinoa in 3 changes of cold water in a bowl, draining in a sieve between changes of water.
• Stir together quinoa, 4 cups water, and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a 2- to 3-quart saucepan, and simmer, uncovered, until quinoa is just tender and germ starts to separate from grain, about 20 minutes. Drain well in sieve, then transfer to a medium bowl.
• While quinoa is simmering, cover bulgur with warm water by 2 inches and soak until tender and chewy, about 10 minutes. Drain well in a sieve, then stir into drained quinoa. Cool grains completely, about 20 minutes.
• While grains cool, stir together oil, lemon juice, mint, pepper, and remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl and let stand 15 minutes, then stir into grains along with olives, radishes, feta, and lettuce. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Place the squash on a baking sheet and toss with the harissa and some seasoning. Roast for 30 mins or until golden and tender.
• Put the bulgur wheat in a saucepan, cover with boiling water, then cook for 15 mins, drain and cool. Put half the lime juice in a small bowl and add the onion. Leave to sit for 5 mins, then add to the bulgur wheat along with the feta, cooled squash, coriander and spinach.
• In a frying pan, toast the pumpkin seeds for 3-4 mins or until they start popping in the pan. Remove, chop 2 tbsp of the seeds and put in a bowl. Pour the rest over the salad. Add the remaining lime juice to the chopped seeds, with the oil, and seasoning. Mix and pour over the salad.
