Ingredients

250g toasted couscous or giant (Israeli) couscous
Zest and juice of 2 large lemons
8tbsp extra virgin olive oil
500g cherry tomatoes, halved
Large bunch flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped

Instructions

Put the couscous in a large bowl. Pour over boiling water to come about 2cm above the surface. Cover with clingfilm and leave to stand for 10 mins or until tender. Put into a colander and run under cold water. Put back into the bowl and add the lemon zest and juice, and the olive oil. Add plenty of seasoning.
Make sure your tomatoes are at room temperature as the fridge deadens their flavour. Stir into the couscous with the parsley.
