In a bowl, soak the bulgur with the boiling water for 20-30 minutes, mixing occasionally until they are soft and tender.

Meanwhile dice and chop all your ingredients.

In a frying pan bring the olive oil, salt, tomato and pepper paste to simmer and keep cooking on low for about 5-7 minutes.

Add in the bulgur and mix to coat well with the tomato paste. Allow the bulgur to cool down for about 10 minutes.

In a bowl, add in all the salad ingredients with the bulgur, lemon juice and cumin. Taste to see if you prefer to add more salt.

Serve.
