I love this dish because it’s such a global favourite—you can find tabbouleh in all corners of the globe! It’s so simple in that not only does it require minimum effort, but you can also make it anytime and leave covered to blend the flavours for up to a day. This recipe uses our mint-flavoured olive oil to add a real kick to proceedings just as you’re plating up.
