A bowl of freekah salad with boiled eggs on top

Ingredients

  • 1 cup cooked freekeh (see notes)
  • 1 red onion, slithered
  • 2 sticks celery, thinly sliced
  • ¾ cup flat leaf parsley, chopped
  • 1 cup mint leaves
  • ⅓ cup pistachios, chopped
  • ⅓ cup almonds, chopped
  • ¼ cup craisins or currants
  • 5 soft peeled boiled eggs, halved

Dressing:

  • 2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1½ Tbsp pomegranate molasses
  • 1 Tbsp honey

Method

  1. Cook freekeh in a pot of boiling water for 20 minutes or until tender but still nutty. Drain and cool under cold water.
  2. Make dressing by combining all ingredients in a jug.
  3. Place freekeh and remaining ingredients, excluding eggs into a large bowl. Add ⅔ of the dressing and stir to combine.
  4. Spoon salad onto a serving platter. Arrange the peeled boiled eggs into the salad. Drizzle with remaining dressing or serve with dressing on the side.

Notes

  • You can substitute freekeh (toasted wheat) for pearl barley which has a softer texture and not as nutty. Both are available from major supermarkets.
  • Make salad ahead of time, adding the chopped nuts, herbs, and extra dressing just before serving.
