Couscous Salad

This is a colorful salad that is both healthy and refreshing. I usually have it when I make Moroccan dishes instead of plain couscous.

15 min prep

Elements

  • 1 cup couscous
  • 1 cup vegetable stock
  • 1 cup orange juice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon sumac
  • ½ cup raisins
  • 1 cup chopped cherry tomatoes
  • ½ cup pomegranate
  • Zest of one lemon
  • ½ bunch of parsley, roughly chopped
  • ½ bunch of fresh mint, roughly chopped
  • ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt/pepper

Alchemy

  1. Put the vegetable stock, orange juice, spices, and salt in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
  2. Turn off the heat and add the couscous.
  3. Cover with cling film or a towel and let stand for 15 minutes until all the liquid has been absorbed.
