Step 1
Bring 2 cups water and 1 cup bulgur to a boil in a small pot. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until water is absorbed and bulgur is tender, about 12-15 minutes.
Step 2
Fluff the cooked bulgur with a fork, then spread it on a plate to cool slightly for 5 minutes.
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine the bulgur, 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 cup chopped parsley, and juice of 1 lemon. Season with 0.5 tsp salt and toss well.
Step 4
Taste and adjust with more lemon or salt if needed. Serve warm or at room temperature.
