Method

1. Prep: Rinse bulgur¹ under cold water, cover with boiling water at a 1:1.5 ratio, cover, and let sit for 15 minutes; drain and cool, squeezing out excess liquid—bulgur should be tender.

2. Prep: Dice tomatoes⁴ into small cubes (0.5–1 cm).

3. Prep: Finely chop parsley² and mint.

4. Combine: Mix cooled bulgur¹, tomatoes⁴, and herbs in a large bowl.

5. Dress: Pour in lemon⁷ juice and olive oil, season with salt to taste, and toss; sprinkle with crumbled feta⁹ and gently fold in.

6. Serve: Let sit for 5 minutes, then serve as a standalone dish.
