Tabbouleh

Fill the sink with cold water and wash the parsley; it floats and the sand sinks.

Dry the parsley as thoroughly as possible with paper towel.

Stem the parsley and chop it finely without overdoing it, which bruises it.

In a large mixing bowl stir cracked wheat with water one to one and leave it to soak untouched until it absorbs the water.

Slice the cucumber, cut into sticks, then cubes.

Cut the tomato three quarters of the way through each way, holding it together, for even cubes.

Combine with fresh lime juice, salt and olive oil and mix.
