2. Add the finely grated and squeezed onion, mashed garlic, tomato paste, pepper paste, cumin, black pepper, and salt to the damp bulgur.
3. Knead the mixture vigorously using the palm of your hand against the tray for about 20 to 25 minutes, until the bulgur is completely soft and forms a cohesive paste.
