Place the couscous in a large bowl. Pour 6 tablespoons of olive oil and the boiling water over it. Let it sit for about 10 minutes without stirring or covering. Soak the raisins in hot water.

Meanwhile, prepare the vegetables: dice the cucumber, bell pepper, and tomato into small pieces. Finely slice the onion and mint. Squeeze the lemon.

Fluff the couscous with a fork to separate the grains.

Add all the other ingredients and mix with a spoon. You can serve it right away or chill it in the fridge.
