Pearl Couscous Salad
Ingredients
- Olive oil2 tsp
- Garlic2
- Onion½
- Couscous1 ½ cups
- Chicken broth1 ½ cups
- Cucumber2
- Cherry tomato250 g
- Spinach3 cups
- Cilantro¼ cups
- Dill¼ cups
- Lemon8 tsp
- Extra virgin olive oil¼ cups
- Dijon mustard1 tsp
- Sugar1 tsp
- Salt¾ tsp
- Black pepper½ tsp
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan or small pot over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and onion and cook until the onion is translucent and just starting to brown.
- Add the couscous and stir for 1 minute. Pour in the broth and water and bring to a simmer. Cover, then lower the heat to medium-low so it simmers gently.
- Cook for 10 minutes until the liquid is absorbed and the couscous is cooked through but still firm. Fluff with a fork and transfer to a large bowl to cool. It will clump together at first, but will separate when tossed with the dressing.
- Put the dressing ingredients in a jar and shake well.
- Add the salad ingredients to the bowl, pour over the dressing and toss. Serve at room temperature.
