Ingredients
| couscous | 250 gram | |
| lemon | 2 | |
| mint leaves | 20 gram | (fresh) |
| flat-leaf parsley | 20 gram | (fresh) |
| olive oil (extra vergine) | 1 tablespoon | |
| Pistachios | 150 gram |
Preparation
- Place the couscous in a large bowl. Add 400 ml of boiling water and immediately cover with clingfilm and allow to stand for 5 minutes.
- Finely grate the zest from the lemons and reserve. Cut the lemons into quarters.
- Scrape a fork over the surface of the couscous to break up de individual grains. Roughly chop the herbs and add with oil and lemon zest, then season generously. Roughly chop the pistachios and add the to the mixture.
- Use a heated bbq or preheat the grill to high, and cook the lemon wedges for about 3 to 5 minutes, turning once during the cooking until just beginning to char at the edges. Using tongs, squeeze the juice from the hot wedges over the couscous and mix in well. Serve immediately.
