Hazırlanışı

Adım adım

1
Place the fine bulgur in a large heatproof bowl.
Yaklaşık 1 dk.
2
Pour the boiling water over the bulgur, cover the bowl tightly, and let it sit for 20 minutes until the bulgur has absorbed the water and softened.
Aşçının notu: Ensure the water is truly boiling for best results.
3
While the bulgur is soaking, combine the rinsed red lentils with the lentil water in a small pot.
Yaklaşık 1 dk.
4
Bring the lentils to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10-12 minutes until they are tender but still hold their shape.
Yaklaşık 12 dk.
Aşçının notu: Do not overcook the lentils; they should not be mushy.
5
Drain any excess water from the cooked lentils and set them aside to cool slightly.
Yaklaşık 2 dk.
6
Once the bulgur is soft, fluff it with a fork.
Yaklaşık 1 dk.
7
Add the tomato paste, red pepper paste, olive oil, lemon juice, ground cumin, pul biber, salt, and black pepper to the bulgur.
Yaklaşık 2 dk.
8
Mix thoroughly with your hands, squeezing gently to ensure the pastes and spices are evenly distributed throughout the bulgur.
Yaklaşık 3 dk.
Aşçının notu: Using your hands helps incorporate the flavors better than a spoon.
9
Add the cooled lentils, diced cucumber, diced tomato, sliced green onion, chopped fresh parsley, and chopped fresh mint to the bulgur mixture.
Yaklaşık 2 dk.
10
Gently fold all the ingredients together until well combined.
Yaklaşık 2 dk.
11
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the kisir for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Yaklaşık 30 dk.
Aşçının notu: Chilling improves the taste and texture of the salad.
12
Serve chilled, optionally with romaine lettuce leaves for scooping.
