First round had pomegranates, second batch got golden raisins. Both Delish! Martha you would be so proud of my tedious recipe.
Men tend to like this more then the chics. Very interesting...
1 can garbanzos rinsed, dried on paper towel while you do the rest(moist ones make for mushy mess)
2 boxes plain Near east couscous
4 cloves of garlic minced
salt/pepper to taste
2 tbls curry powder
1 tbls ground cumin
dash chili powder
Bring to boil, then add couscous stir, cover, turn off heat, sit covered 5minutes. fluff with fork
1half red onion finely chopped
2 scallion stalks, white and green parts chopped
Half a bunch of flat leaf parsley chopped
1 hand full chives, then chopped
add to a large bowl
Mix couscous, herbs and onions
1 cup toasted pine nuts. Dont be lazy and skip this! All you do is heat up a pan, pour in, watch them, give em a shake until golden. DONT walk away! These yummies burn quick. like 2mins really
1cup re hydrated golden raisins(add enough water to cover, boil until fat about 5 minutes)strain
In frying pan heat 2tbls extra virgin olive oil then garbanzos, sprinkle, salt, pepper a bit more curry powder and stir fry a bit
These annoying steps intensify the flavor and add moisture to the salad
Mix all together more salt and pepper to taste.
