Ingredients

  • Blender
  • Handful Cooked Vegetables
  • 2 Cups Couscous
  • Handful Spinach Leaves
  • 1 Large Onion peeled and diced
  • Handful Grated Carrot
  • 1 Large Lemon rind and juice
  • 1 Tbsp Coriander
  • 1 Tsp Parsley
  • Salt & Pepper
  • Fresh Parsley
Metric - Imperial

Instructions

  • Place everything apart from the grated carrot and the couscous into the blender and whiz around until blended.
  • Add the couscous along with 2 cups of boiling water and mix without using the blender function. Leave a lid on the top for 10 minutes so that the couscous can cook.
  • Take the lid off, give it a quick stir and place into bowls.
  • Decorate with the grated carrot.
  • Serve.

Notes

For the cooked vegetables you can use whatever you like but I love red peppers, carrots and broccoli as mine. But wet vegetables are the easiest i.e. cauliflower and courgette in case your blender isn’t that high duty.
