I’ve been eating lots over this festive season – however, it is now time to reacquaint myself with the ‘vegetable’ food group (as opposed to the alcohol, chocolate, and nut food groups).
This is a simple couscous and lemony salad. I had hoped the addition of ‘preserved’ lemon would lift the salad from plain to interesting, but that is probably asking too much of a pickled fruit.
note: I now have a jar of preserved lemons.
