- 0.5 teaspoons ground cumin
- 2 tablespoons water

Rinse the parsley thoroughly and pat it dry with a paper towel. Finely chop the parsley and transfer it to a large salad bowl.

Thinly slice the green onions and mix them into the salad bowl with the other vegetables.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and ground cumin.
Gradually whisk in the water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dressing reaches a smooth and pourable consistency.
