Invited to a summer pick nick or BBQ and want to bring a special side dish but don’t have too much time?

Try this delicious, less than 20 minute recipe for:

NICI’S COUS-COUS SALAD

(Was enough for a party of eight as one side dish)

250 g cous-cous

1 Tsp salt

7-10 Tbsp olive oil

6 Tbsp lemon juice (about 2 lemons)

300 – 400 g cherry tomatoes (diced)

1 leek (or 3 scallions) (cut into thin slices)

1 hand full fresh mint leaves

1 small dried red chili

2 garlic cloves crushed

Salt, pepper

Bring 250 ml water to the boil with 1 Tsp salt and 1 Tbsp olive oil. While stirring mix cous-cous into water, cover and take away from heat. Let sit for about 5-10 minutes, or until cous-cous is tender but firm to the bite. Stir until cous-cous has cooled a bit and won’t lump. Mix with rest of ingredients.

DONE!!! :o)
