Baby pea and lemon couscous salad

By Abigail Donnelly
4
Easy

Ingredients

  • 100 g couscous
  • Olive oil
  • A knob of butter
  • 1 can blanched baby peas
  • Baby spinach
  • Fresh chilli
  • 2 T lemon juice

Method

Pour boiling water over couscous to just cover, then top with a lid and leave until all the liquid has been absorbed. Fluff up using a fork, adding a drizzle of olive oil or a knob of butter, if desired.

Toss with blanched baby peas, lemon juice, crumbled feta, a few roast sweet peppers, baby spinach and chopped fresh chilli, then drizzle with olive oil and season to taste before serving.
