INGREDIENTS

 

1 ¼ cups water
¼ teaspoon of salt
1 cup raw bulgur

½ red onion thinly sliced (optional)
1 cucumber thinly sliced.
1 x 400g (14 oz) can of chickpeas, drained.

DIRECTIONS
 

1. Bring water and salt to boil. Turn off the heat, stir in bulgur, cover, and leave to stand for 20 minutes or until all the water is absorbed.
2. Uncover and let cool to room temperature (you can spread out onto a baking sheet to make this process quicker).
3. Whisk together the yoghurt, lemon juice, olive oil and pepper.
4. Add all ingredients to a large bowl. Add the dressing and toss well.
5. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour. Serve.
