Side Dish
Indian
2 servings
10 minutes
20 minutes
2 cups water
1 cup couscous
1/2 organic orange zest, minced
2 teaspoons cumin seeds, toasted and ground
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons chives (fresh) chopped
1 tablespoon mint (fresh) chopped
1/2 cup pummelo juice (fresh)
Salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
Bring the water to a boil and remove from heat. Stir in the couscous and orange zest.
Let stand, covered, for 5 minutes.
Add the cumin, oil, chives, mint, and pummelo juice and gently fluff together with a fork so the delicate grains of the couscous are not mashed. Season with salt and pepper.
This side dish can be served hot or cool, and is best presented in a mold. Just lightly oil a ramekin or small cup, pack with the cooked couscous, and invert onto serving plates.
