85 grams (3 oz., ½ cup) burghul /cous cous

Leave the burghul in water for about 2 hours, then

mint and green onions very fine. Dice the tomato.
Combine all ingredients including burghul.

Add salt to taste, lemon juice, olive oil and mix well.
Serve in a bowl lined with lettuce leaves. This salad

scoop up a bite of the mixture in a lettuce leaf and
pop it into the mouth.
