COUSCOUS SALAD WITH SUN DRIED TOMATO AND FETA



Couscous Salad with Sun Dried Tomato and Feta image

Recipe VIDEO above. A 12 minute, no cook, giant Couscous Salad with sun dried tomato, feta, rocket / arugula, herbs and the added nutty tastiness of chickpeas. My shortcut-flavour tip is to use the oil from the sun dried tomato jar as the dressing - free flavour! The flavour pops from the sun dried tomato and feta are quite intense, so this truly is satisfying to have as a meal, or as a substantial side. This makes quite a lot - serves 5 as a main, or 8 - 10 as a side. Keeps very well.

Provided by Nagi

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/4 cups dried couscous ((Note 1))
1 1/4 cups / 315 ml boiled water
1 tsp vegetable stock powder ((or 1 cube crumbled) (Note 2))
1 garlic clove (, minced)
1 tsp coriander powder (or cumin - I interchange)
400 g / 14 oz chickpeas (1 can) (, drained)
1/2 cup coriander (, finely chopped)
1/2 cup parsley (, finely chopped (or mint))
1 red onion (, chopped)
220 g / 7 oz jar sun dried tomato strips in OIL ((Note 3))
120 g / 4 oz rocket / arugula lettuce (, chopped into 5 cm / 2" pieces)
Zest of 1 large lemon
5 tbsp fresh lemon juice ((2 large lemons))
1/2 tsp coarsely ground black pepper
60 g / 2 oz feta (, crumbled)
Salt and pepper (, to taste)

Steps:

  • Place chickpeas, couscous, vegetable stock powder, coriander and garlic in a large bowl. Pour over hot water, shake to level out couscous (chickpeas should mostly settle on top). Cover with plate or cling wrap, set aside for 5 minutes.
  • Fluff couscous with fork. Cool a bit.
  • Add coriander, parsley, onion, sun dried tomatoes (including all oil), rocket, lemon juice and black pepper. Sprinkle zest across surface. Toss well to combine.
