Method
- Put the bulgur wheat in a pan and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 15 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.
- Meanwhile, blanch the podded beans in a pan of boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain and refresh under cold running water. Toast the za’atar in a dry frying pan until aromatic, then cool.
- Put the olive oil, lemon zest and juice, lime juice (add to your taste) and garlic with plenty of seasoning in a jar, put the lid on and shake to combine. Mix the toasted za’atar, spring onions, tomato, herbs, bulgur wheat and beans in a bowl with the dressing, spoon into a serving dish, then sprinkle with the sumac.
