Soak the bulgur in hot water for 10 minutes and combine it with warm ingredients so the sauce does not split.
Finely chop the tomato, cucumber, carrot, and dill, keeping them separate so they do not water down the bulgur.
Whisk the yogurt with garlic and salt, then add the watery vegetables later.
Toss the bulgur, vegetables, and yogurt sauce for 1 minute without crushing them.
Rest for 10 minutes and serve at room temperature.
💡 Tip: Soaking bulgur in hot water for 10 minutes gives the salad a firm but tender texture.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve in a cold bowl with cucumber and carrot left on top.
