A delicious couscous salad with the taste of summer. Easy to prepare and super fresh. I recommend to cook the couscous first as you need to let is cool before mixing it with the salad. Suits well to serve it with any sort of meat. Also perfect for the bbq table as a good side dish.
Ingredients:
4 port.
ORANGE VINAIGRETTE:
1/2 orange zest and juice
½ dl olive oil
2 tsp balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp honey
1 garlic clove, minced
salt and pepper
FOR THE COUSCOUS:
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tbsp chicken fond or 1/2 vegetable cube
2 ½ dl water
2 ½ dl couscous
salt and pepper
FOR THE SALAD:
Fresh spinach
10 strawberries, sliced
Seeds from 1 pomegranate
100 gram feta cheese, cut into cubes
1 dl chopped hazelnuts
salt and pepper to taste
DO THIS:
- Combine all the ingredients for the vinaigrette. Store in the fridge.
- Cook the couscous. In a medium saucepan, bring water, olive oil and fond to a boil. Stir in couscous, cover, and remove from heat. Allow to set for 5 minutes and then fluff it up with a fork. Season with salt and pepper. Allow to cool to room temperature.
- In a large bowl, combine couscous, spinach, strawberries, feta, and hazelnuts. Save some for garnish. Stir in half of the vinaigrette and then season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the sallad on a big serving plate and garnish with more strawberries, pomegranate, feta cheese and hazelnuts. Serve the rest of the vinaigrette on the side.
ENJOY! :)
