  • In a medium saucepan, bring the broth to a gentle boil. Then reduce heat to low and keep it hot throughout the duration of the couscous prep.
  • Put the pine nuts in a large high-sided skillet or non-stick sauté pan (whatever pan you intend to use to prepare the couscous) over medium heat. Let them toast alone in the pan for 3-4 minutes. Watch closely and stir or shake the pan often. Once the nuts develop a light tan color, immediately transfer them to a small bowl or plate and set it aside. Return the pan to the stovetop.
  • Warm 2 teaspoons olive oil over medium heat in the sauté pan or skillet. Add the diced bell pepper, chopped asparagus, minced garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook vegetables about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they brown slightly around the edges. Then transfer the entire contents of the pan to a second small bowl or plate and set it aside. Return the pan to the stovetop.
  • Warm the remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil in the pan over medium heat. Add the diced red onion and let it cook 2-3 minutes until slightly softened. Turn the heat beneath the pan to low and add the couscous, remaining 1 teaspoon salt, dried oregano, and freshly ground black pepper. Stir briefly to coat the couscous in the oil and seasonings and then pour 3-4 generous ladles of simmering vegetable broth (about 1-1.5 cups) over the couscous. Gently stir the couscous until most of the broth is absorbed and then continue to add ladles of broth (one at a time) to the couscous. Stir in between each ladle pour and let the couscous fully absorb the broth before adding more. Once the couscous turns al dente (typically after the addition of 2-2.5 cups broth or 10-15 minutes), stop adding broth and turn off the heat beneath the pan. Keeping the pan over the warm burner, stir in the chopped mint and basil and reserved veggie mixture (bell pepper, asparagus, and garlic). Then finish with a generous s
