Tabbouleh with couscous
Description
A simple dish to prepare. I want to point out right away that tabbouleh with couscous should be prepared in advance, not at the last minute, since couscous needs 40 minutes just to swell, and then it still requires time to cool down. Therefore, you should start preparing this salad at least one hour before serving. Here is the recipe for tabbouleh with couscous: 1. Pour two cups of boiled water over one cup of couscous. Do not cook—simply leave it for 30–40 minutes to allow the couscous to swell. 2. Finely chop the fresh herbs, and finely dice the onions and tomatoes. Add them to a salad bowl. 3. Add the swollen couscous (of course, without any remaining liquid) to the vegetables in the bowl. Mix well. 4. Finally, dress the salad with olive oil and lemon juice, and season with salt to taste. That's it! Serve the tabbouleh with couscous cold. Serve chilled.
