  Rinse bulgur.  Pour enough boiling water over it to cover by 1"

  light and fluffy. Drain off excess water in colander, then squeeze
  with your hands to remove any more water.
  
  Mix with vegetables, tossing often.  Add lemon juice, oil and spices.
  
  Use bread wedges (Syrian bread if possible, or fresh pita bread cut in
  strips), escarole or lettuce leaves; line platter.  Put tablespoonful
  on bread or lettuce leaf; roll and eat.  (Or can be served as a
  salad.) Should be served immediately after preparation.
  
  Yield: 6 to 8 servings.
  
  Yummy!  Authentic Middle Eastern version - _no_ mint!  Good with
  grilled fish.
