How to Prepare Tabbouleh Salad Burger [Vegan]
For the Tabblouleh:
- Bring the water, lightly salted, to a boil. Add the bulgur wheat, lower the heat to a simmer, and cook, uncovered, for about 10 minutes, or until all the liquid is absorbed. Set aside to cool.
- In a large bowl, combine the parsley, cucumber, tomatoes, mint, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste. Add the cooled bulgur and mix thoroughly.
- Stop here and you have a perfectly good tabbouleh salad. You don’t have to make it into burgers.
For the Burgers:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking pan with parchment or a silicone baking mat.
- Add the flour and cornstarch to the Tabbouleh Salad mixture. Knead until well incorporated. If your mixture is too wet, add a little more flour. Form into 10 patties.
- Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until firm and just beginning to brown.
- You can eat them just like this, but they get extra yummy if you panfry them in a little sesame oil after you bake them, just to get a little golden crispy crust! Alternatively, use your Air-Fryer at 375°F for 18 to 20 minutes.
