CHRISTMAS COUSCOUS SALAD

Christmas Couscous Salad image

This interesting and different salad was published in the Daily Mail, from Prue Leith's column. It says: serve as part of a buffet on Boxing Day with cold meats or with grilled goat's cheese for a simple first course. You can also soak the dried fruits in the dressing while you prepare the couscous, if you want to. I've put down 10 minutes for the couscous to cook, because I haven't got a packet for instructions. But I know it's not long ...
