This has been our favourite Recipe for Hot Weather so far this season. It makes a full meal, and contains a nice variety of textures and flavours. We enjoy it topped with ground fresh chili paste.

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup couscous
boiling water
1/2 cup parsley, chopped
1 green onion, diced
1 tomatoes, diced
1/2 red pepper, diced (or yellow or orange)
1/2 cup feta, crumbled
1/4 cup almonds, whole
3 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Chop parsley, green onion, tomato, and pepper.
  • When couscous is done (tender), scoop it into a bigger bowl and fluff it with a fork. Add chopped ingredients and mix together.
  • Add crumbled feta and whole almonds and stir to blend everything together.
  • Add olive oil and salt and pepper, and stir well once again.
  • Serve on two plates and add ground fresh chili paste as you eat, according to your taste! Enjoy!
