Servings: persons

2 Small Red Onions
2 tbsp Balsamic
1 tbsp Pomegranate Molasses
3 tbsp Lemon Juice
1-2 cups Cooked Bulgur
Handful of Dried Blue Berries
Pomegranate Seeds
Chopped Walnuts
Handful of Chopped Cilantro
Handful of Chopped Basil

1
To cook the bulgur, place it in a bowl, cover with boiling water and cover with some foil until the liquid is absorbed, about 30 minutes. Set aside to cool then keep in the fridge.
2
Prepare the Onions ahead of time and cool. Halve the onions, thinly slice and saute with some olive oil, salt and black pepper for approximately 7 minutes until translucent. Add Balsamic Vinegar, Pomegranate Molasses and 1 tbsp Lemon Juice and continue to saute for another 3-4 minutes, until they have browned and the liquids evaporated.
3
Chop the walnuts, cilantro, basil and de-seed one large pomegranate. In a large bowl, mix these ingredients with the cooked bulgur and the sauteed onions and dress with a drizzle of olive oil, 2-3 tbsp lemon juice, sea salt & freshly ground black pepper.
4
I intended to make this one with Arugula but didn't have any on hand, so I just mixed in the fresh herbs. I'm pretty sure any other dried berries would taste just as good, or even dried apricots.
