Ingredients for 8 servings:
- 300 g couscous
- 5 tomatoes, diced

- 5 tbsp oil (almond oil)
- 30 dl water
- salt and pepper
Instructions
Working time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 20 minutes
Salad of couscous, tomatoes, spring onions and mint
Finely dice the tomatoes and onions, place them in a large bowl, and mix with the still-dry couscous. Add oil (you can use other oils, but almond oil is quite tasty and works best). Then add enough cold water—300 ml is just a guideline—to completely submerge the salad. Immediately add salt and pepper. Now you have to wait until the couscous has swelled—it’s best to let it stand covered. Then finely chop the peppermint and add it, along with the raisins (optional). Now you have to check whether the couscous has had enough water; if not, add another glass (150 ml). Then season again with salt and pepper.
