My Thoughts

This is an incredibly easy side to make that goes with just about anything! The couscous gets really nice and tender, and the fresh herbs really add a nice earthy note to the pasta (yes, couscous is technically a pasta). the sumac (not to be confused with the poisonous kind) gives everything a nice, bright, citrus punch too.

The How To Do It

  1. In a medium-sized saucepan, bring the water to boil.
  2. While the water is coming to boil, chop the mint and parsley.
  3. Once the water has come to boil, add the dry couscous, and let cook for however long the package instructs. It's usually about 8-10 minutes.
  4. While the couscous is cooking, chop the mint and parsley and set it aside.
  5. Once the couscous has finished cooking mix in the parsley, mint, salt, pepper, and sumac.
  6. That's it! You're all done. Serve it with lamb, chicken, steak, or pretty much anything you like. It also goes really well with chard cauliflower steaks too.
