KISIR - TURKISH TABBOULEH
From about.com, it's kind of like a spicier mix of tabbouleh and couscous. Serve with pita for an appetizer, snack, or small meal. Time does not include several hours for sitting.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a medium sized saucepan and sauté the onion to just take off the raw edge. Add the garlic and cook for another 30 secs or so. Add the cumin and chillies and cook for another 1 min. Stir in the tomato purée and 175ml boiling water. Add the bulgur, season, stir everything together, remove from the heat, cover and leave to sit for about 15 mins. The water should have been absorbed.
- Fork the grains to separate and aerate them, then add the tomatoes, walnuts, pomegranate seeds and herbs and fork them through. Mix the lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil and pomegranate molasses in a small bowl. Add three quarters of this, then taste to see if it needs any more (if it seems well flavoured and moist enough, then leave it).
- The kisir can sit at room temperature for a few hours, or covered in the fridge - but let it come to room temperature before serving.

TURKISH PEPPERY BULGUR SALAD (KISIR)
Another recipe from Claudia Roden. Kisir is a salad from Gaziantep. You need the fine-ground (not medium) bulgur, which you can find in Middle Eastern stores. Chilli peppers give it a thrilling zing, but you can leave them out. Serve it with little lettuce leaves that can be used as scoops.

Steps:
- Put the bulgur into a bowl, pour the boiling water over it, stir and leave for 15-20 minutes until the grain is tender. Don't be tempted to add more water since the juice from the lemons and tomatoes will soften it further.
- Add the tomato paste, lemon juice and oil, the chilli, and some salt, and mix thoroughly. Trim the green tops off the spring onions, then slice them finely. Add them and the diced tomatoes to the bulgur mixture, together with the parsley and mint, and mix well.
- Serve with the small lettuce leaves stuck around the edges of the salad. Another way is to roll the bulgur mixture into balls the size of a small egg and to place each one in the hollow of a lettuce leaf.

KISIR (TURKISH BULGUR WHEAT SALAD)
This is not a traditional Turkish Kisir, but the best I can do with the ingredients available in local stores. The salad is simple, and it's good for a light summertime meal.

Steps:
- Mix bulgur and water and set aside for 30 minutes, until all of the water is absorbed. (There is a special kind of bulghur used in Turkish Kisir, but any bulgur or cracked wheat that can be prepared in this way will work).
- Add remaining ingredients, adding the red pepper paste last. (Trader Joe's makes Red Pepper Spread with Eggplant and Garlic, which works pretty well. The Turkish spread is called Ajvar (Ayvar/Hayvar/Havyar), and it is much more spicy).
- Refrigerate and serve cold.

- Toast. In a medium-sized pot (3.5qt) over medium-high heat, add 1 tbsp of olive oil, allow to heat up, then add the bulgur and toast the grain for 2-3 minutes. You'll notice a nutty smell coming from the grains.
- Add the liquid. Add hot water and salt to the pot of bulgur. The water will sizzle at this point, be careful. The grains will quickly soak up the liquid. Give it 2 minutes to bloom and stir the pot.
- Kill the heat. Leave the pot on the hot element. The bulgur will soak up all the water. Keep the pot covered and allow the bulgur to rest 10 minutes. ⏤ The bulgur will continue to cook in the residual heat.
- Meanwhile, gather and prepare all your salad ingredients, put them aside for use once the bulgur is done.
