A very tasty and refreshing recipe! It's a kind of tabbouleh (my way, with what I have at home) and it's very healthy! Perfect as a starter or side dish.

Steps

1

I used these ingredients, but you can add as much as you like and use what you have at home raw.
2

In a pot, heat the vegetable broth or water with a vegetable bouillon cube (1 cup) over medium-high heat. When the cube dissolves and the water is almost boiling, add a pinch of salt, the couscous, and immediately remove from heat. Add a splash of olive oil and the juice of half a lemon. Stir well. Check if it's cooked; if it needs more cooking, add half a cup of water and heat until absorbed and perfectly cooked.
3

Finely chop all the vegetables. Add the dried spices and the finely chopped fresh herbs on top. Mix well.
4

Add the couscous on top and mix everything well. Add a splash of olive oil and taste to see if more lemon or spices are needed. Enjoy!
