Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup Israeli couscous
  • 1 ¼ cup water 300ml
  • 1 cup watermelon 170g, diced
  • 1 nectarine or peach
  • 3 oz feta cheese 80g
  • ½ cup blueberries 80g
  • ¼ cup mint 4tbsp, chopped (fresh)
  • ¼ cup parsley 4tbsp, chopped (fresh)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • salt
  • black pepper

Instructions

  1. Warm 2tbsp olive oil in a pan then toast the couscous until lightly brown - about 3-5min. Add the water, cover and bring to a bil then reduce the heat so it simmers. Cook until the water is absorbed -about 10min. Allow the couscous to cool - you can help it along by rinsing in cold water.
  2. While the couscous is cooking and cooling, dice the watermelon and nectarine/peach into bite-sized pieces. Chop or break up the feta into small chunks and chop the mint and parsley - a rough chop is fine.
  3. Dress the cooled couscous with the lemon juice, oil and a few grinds of salt and pepper. Toss so it is well-coated. Add the rest of the ingredients, toss, and serve.
