EATS Virtual Cooking Class 2: Tabbouleh Salad
Learn how to make tabbouleh!
Ingredients:
- ½ cup quinoa or couscous
- 1 cup of diced cucumber (small to medium cucumber)
- 1 cup of diced tomato
- 3 medium bunches of curly parsley
- ⅓ cup of thinly sliced green onions
- 1 medium garlic clove, pressed or minced
- ⅓ cup of olive oil
- ⅓ cup of chopped fresh mint (optional)
Directions:
1. Cook the quinoa or couscous according to the package.
2. Meanwhile, combine the diced cucumber and tomato in a medium bowl with ½ teaspoon of the salt. Stir, and let the mixture rest for at least 10 minutes, or until you’re ready to mix the salad.
3. To prepare the parsley, cut off the thick stems. Then, finely chop the parsley and remaining stems—you can do this by hand, but it’s much easier in a food processor with the standard “S” blade. Process 1 bunch at a time (it should yield about 1 cup chopped), transferring the chopped parsley to a large serving bowl before proceeding with the next.
4. Add cooked quinoa or couscous, chopped fresh mint (if using) and green onion to the bowl of parsley. Strain off and discard the cucumber and tomato juice that has accumulated in the bottom of the bowl (this ensures that your tabbouleh isn’t too watery). Add the strained cucumber and tomato to the bowl.
5. In a small measuring cup or bowl, whisk together the olive oil, 3 tablespoons lemon juice, garlic, and remaining ½ teaspoon salt. Pour it into the salad and stir to combine. Taste, and adjust if necessary—add another tablespoon of lemon juice for zing, or salt for more overall flavor.
6. If you have the time, let the salad rest for 15 minutes before serving to let the flavors mingle. Otherwise, you can serve it immediately or chill it for later. Tabbouleh will keep well in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 4 days.

----
Directions:
To make the stuffing:
1- Wash your rice until the water runs clear, place in a colander and allow to drain completely
2- Dice your onions into a small dice, and mince the parsley and dill (make sure to remove the stalks)
3- Place the onion in a bowl, and add the salt and pepper. Knead them into the onion to separate all the layers
4- Add the washed and dried rice, mix well
5- Add the tomato paste, and mix until evenly coated
6- Add the minced parsley (1 cup) and minced dill (2/3 cup), and mix
7- Blend your tomatoes into a liquid and add to the rice, and mix again
8- Melt your clarified butter, then pour onto the rice as well as the oil
9- Mix once more and the stuffing is done
To stuff the vine leaves:
1- Remove your vine leaves from the jar/pack, and rinse them under cold water
2- If your vine leaves feel a bit stiff, blanch each leaf in boiling water for 90 seconds
3- Place a leaf on your chopping board, with the ribs (rough side of the leaf) facing upwards
4- Place a teaspoon of the filling on the center of the leaf, leaving a gap to the bottom of the leaf
5- Fold the bottom of the leaf over the filling, then roll the leaf slightly
6- Tuck in the left and right sides of the leaf, then continue rolling and tucking until fully rolled
To assemble the pot:
1- Slice your onion or potato into thick slices, and lay them across the bottom of your pot. Peel and add the garlic cloves
2- Lay your vine leaves in a spiral, starting along the outer edge of the pot and working your way inwards
3- Finish a complete layer of vine leaves, then begin the next layer on top
4- Partial layers are fine and won't cause any issues
To make the yoghurt:
1- Add the yoghurt, lemon and vinegar to a bowl. Mix together and thin out with some water until you get a slightly runny consistency
2- Dice the cucumber into very small cubes, then add to the yoghurt, with the salt and mince the clove of garlic and add it
3- Mix well and set aside
To cook the vine leaves:
1- Place the pot on the stove on medium high heat and cover. DO NOT ADD ANY LIQUID
2- After about 10-15 minutes, the vegetables within the pot will have wilted and released some liquid. Tilt the pot and check the liquid is there, then pour in some stock (combine the stock cube with salt, pepper and lemon).
3- Add enough stock to go halfway up the side of the vine leaves, or tilt the pot at a 45 degree angle and the first 1.5 rows should be covered with stock
4- Turn the heat up to high and bring to a boil. Allow it to boil for about 5-10 minutes, until the water dissapears and drops below the surface
5- Turn the heat down to low and let this steam for between 20-40 minutes
6- Remove from the heat when the vine leaves are tender and rice is fully cooked
To serve:
1- Let the pot cool for about 15 minutes, then place a plate on top of the pot
2- Flip the pot over and let this sit for a few minutes before removing the pot
3- Enjoy
