Bulgur and Bean Salad

Bulgur is classified as a whole grain and makes a healthy and satisfying vegetarian meal or a side to grilled meats. We like the light nutty flavor it lends to recipes. I always keep #2 medium grind bulgur on hand whenever tabbouleh, pilaf or salads such as this beckon me. To enjoy the best array of flavors this salad has to offer, serve at room temperature. (The proportions of vegetables and beans to bulgur can be adjusted easily to family preferences.)

Ingredientes

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 1/4 cups dry bulgur wheat
  • 2 1/2 cups chicken or vegetable stock
  • 1/2 cup cucumber, seeded and diced
  • 1/2 cup green onions, sliced
  • 1 stalk celery, sliced thin (about 1/3 cup)
  • 1/4 cup parsley, minced
  • 1 16-ounce can red kidney beans, rinsed and drained
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)

Direcciones

  1. In large frypan saute the bulgur in 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, stirring until the bulgur is lightly golden brown (see photo.)
  2. Carefully and slowly add 1 cup of the chicken stock to bulgur (it will sizzle and steam up). Then continue stirring in the rest of chicken stock. Cover and cook on medium-low until the liquid is absorbed and the grains are tender. Remove from heat and scoop bulgur into large mixing bowl and allow to cool to room temperature (this can be speeded up by refrigerating the bulgur for several minutes.)
  3. When bulgur has cooled to room temperature, add the cucumber, green onions, celery, parsley and beans.
  4. For dressing, whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, lemon juice and salt (optional.) Drizzle dressing over bulgur mixture and toss lightly. Taste for seasoning, adding additional lemon juice and/or oil or other seasonings as desired.
  5. Serves about 6.
