Turkish Bulgur Salad with Pomegranate (Kisir)
This vibrant Turkish bulgur salad, known as Kisir, is a refreshing and healthy lunch option. It combines fine bulgur with fresh herbs, vegetables, and a tangy pomegranate dressing for a burst of flavor.
Let's cook.
Place the fine bulgur wheat in a medium bowl. Pour the hot water over the bulgur, cover the bowl, and let it sit for 10 minutes until the water is absorbed and the bulgur is tender.
While the bulgur is soaking, finely chop the fresh parsley and mint. Dice the tomato and cucumber.
Once the bulgur has absorbed the water, fluff it with a fork.
Add the chopped parsley, mint, diced tomato, and diced cucumber to the bulgur.
In a small separate bowl, whisk together the pomegranate molasses, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the bulgur and vegetable mixture. Toss gently until all ingredients are well combined.
Serve immediately or chill for at least 30 minutes for enhanced flavor.
