BULGUR AND VEGETABLES WITH LEMON CURRY DRESSING
"A versatile, fiber-rich whole grain, bulgur is familiar to many as the main ingredient in tabbouleh. Here, it's showcased as a tart and spicy main-dish salad."
1 cup bulgur
2 cups boiling water
1 (15 1/2 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
2 celery stalks, thinly sliced
3 medium tomatoes (about 1 lb. total), seeded and diced
1/2 cup minced cilantro (coriander)
Salt
FOR THE LEMON CURRY DRESSING:
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon curry powder
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
In a large bowl, combine bulgur and water; cover with foil. Let stand until bulgur is soft and most of the liquid is absorbed (about 1 hour).
MEANWHILE, PREPARE THE DRESSING:
Stir together lemon juice, Dijon mustard and curry powder. Add oil and whisk until blended. Set aside.
Drain off excess liquid from bulgur. Add beans, celery, tomatoes, and cilantro; stir well. Pour in dressing and stir again; season to taste with salt. If made ahead, cover and refrigerate for up to 8 hours.
Serve at room temperature.
Makes 6 servings
