mmm I love it, its soo yummy. But I find if you dont cut up the parsley really fine or better still run it in the processor, It can kinda choke ya. Never the less, I love it with heaps of lemon juice..mmm

Fadi, do you know if cucumber is a traditional ingredient in tabouleh? Just wondering as a few people have told me cucumber (and chilli) is not used back in Lebanon for this... Fattoush has cucumber though..
Just wondering. Interested to know what's cooking back in Lebanon

Good question Raphael. Most do add finely diced cucumbers. Fattoush has radishes in it as well as pomegranate syrup/concentrate. Also, no burghal is added but grilled Lebanese bread instead and everything is roughly chopped in comparison to tabouli. Both dishes are dynamites. Fattoush however has an accompaniment to it when eaten at home called mjadrah. It's basically cooked burghul and lentils with a fried onion on top. It's all good hearty food.

I'm glad you like it because its mineral content puts milk to shame.

Yeah i like tabouli, but i don't love it. It might be because i grew up eating it but i prefer Greek salad anyday..

How would you define Greek salad, as in what makes it unique is what I'm asking? Thank you.

I love that it has an array of flavours, it begins with fresh crisp capsicum, cucumber, onion, goats milk fetta, olives, tomato, raddish and then the dressing. But in saying that i enjoy fattoush because of the same reason plus i LOVE emjadrah, i just never liked tabouli, my mum used to make it everyweek and as a kid i would refuse it, too much parsley for my liking.
