Preparation
1
Cook Bulgur

  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
  • To a medium pot, add 3/4 cup (1 1/2 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high.
  • Once boiling, add bulgur. Cover, remove from heat and let stand for 15-16 min, until bulgur is tender and liquid is absorbed.
  • Fluff with fork, remove lid and set aside to cool slightly.

2
Make dressing and spicy hummus

  • Meanwhile, zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut remaining lemon into wedges.
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) lemon juice, lemon zest, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar, 3/4 tsp (1 1/2 tsp) garlic and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) oil. (TIP: Adjust the amount of garlic, according to your taste.)
  • In a small bowl, combine hummus and chili-garlic sauce.

3
Fry falafel

  • In a large non-stick pan, heat 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil over medium-high. (TIP: We love using olive oil in this recipe!)
  • When hot, into pan, roughly break falafel. (NOTE: Don't crowd the pan. Cook in batches for 4 servings if needed, using 1 tbsp oil per batch.) Pan-fry 4-5 min, until golden. Season with salt and pepper.

4
Finish prep

  • Meanwhile, peel, then finely chop shallot. 
  • Roughly chop spinach.
  • Finely chop parsley
  • Cut tomato into 1/4-inch pieces.

5
Make tabbouleh

  • When bulgur has cooled slightly, to bowl with dressing, add bulgur, shallots, parsley, spinach and tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine.

6
Finish and serve

  • Drain olives, then chop.
  • Divide tabbouleh between bowls.
  • Dollop spicy hummus over top.
  • Top with falafel and olives.
  • Squeeze a lemon wedge over top, if you like.
