Today I had
to do a quick lunch because it was quite a stressful day. So I decided to go
for a couscous salad bowl.
Couscous is
a traditional North African dish made out of semolina. You can easily cook or
prepare it for later on and it always tastes delicious. …as a salad, as a gratin
or a quick side dish to meat or vegetables.
Here’s the
recipe (makes two servings):
Put one cup
of couscous in a big bowl and pour over two cups of boiling water. Set the bowl
aside and let it soak until there’s no water left.
Meanwhile
you can roast half a cup of cashews in a pan without any fat. As soon as
they’re golden put them on a plate and let them chill. Cut a peach in small
slices and roast them in the same pan. Put your slices aside as well.
Heat up one
tablespoon of olive oil, then add in one glove of minced garlic and roast it
slightly. Add in couscous and cashews and stir fry it for about five minutes.
Afterwards season the mix with salt and black pepper.
Next wash
two leaves of iceberg lettuce and place them on a plate. Spread the couscous
mix onto it and decorate with the peach slices and some more cashews.
Special
tip: If you want you can add ore veggies to your couscous. For example some
tomatoes or bell pepper.
Enjoy your
quick lunch!
