Another one of the popular ‘dip’ salads to accompany mezze or a barbecue, bakdounsieh is simple to prepare, flavoursome and healthy. It is important to chop the parsley by hand rather than in a food processor, or you will end up with an unappetising mixture of dubious colour and unappealing texture. Bakdounsieh goes very well with grilled fish.
