Cooking Steps

Cook bulgur
1
  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce. 
  • Lightly oil the grill. While you prep, preheat the grill to medium-high (approx. 500°F).
  • 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 bulgur with a fork.
Prep
2
  • Meanwhile, cut cucumbers into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Roughly chop parsley.
  • Zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut remaining lemon into wedges.
  • Peel, then cut onion into 1/2-inch rounds (keeping rings together). Finely chop 2 tbsp (1/4 cup) of onion, then place in a medium bowl. (NOTE: Set aside to make chopped salad in step 3.)
  • Cut tomato into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Transfer remaining onion rounds to a plate. Drizzle 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil over top, then season with salt and pepper.
Make salad and tahini sauce
3
  • To the bowl with chopped onions, add tomatoes, cucumbers, half the parsley, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) lemon juice, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.
  • In a small bowl, add mayo, tahini sauce, 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) lemon juice and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine. 
Form kibbeh patties
4
  • To another medium bowl, add Turkish Spice Blend, half the crispy shallots and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Stir to combine.
  • Crumble in beef, season with pepper and combine. Using wet hands, form mixture into 8 (16) 2-inch-wide patties.
  • Transfer kibbeh patties to a plate, then drizzle 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil over top. Flip patties to coat each side with oil.
Grill onions and kibbeh
5
  • To one side of the grill, add onion rounds. Reduce heat to medium, close lid and grill for 5-7 min per side, until tender. Transfer back to the same plate.
  • Meanwhile, to the other side of the grill, add kibbeh. Close lid and grill kibbeh for 3-4 min per side, until cooked through.**
Finish and serve
6
  • To the pot with bulgur, add remaining parsley and any remaining lemon juice. Season with pepper, then fluff with a fork to combine.
  • Cut grilled onions into bite-sized pieces.
  • Divide bulgur between bowls.
  • Top with kibbeh, grilled onions and chopped salad.
  • Top with tahini sauce mixture and remaining crispy shallots.
  • Squeeze a lemon wedge over top, if you like.
