Tips & Tricks
- Add some dried stock powder to the couscous cooking water for extra flavour.
- Quickly pickle your onions for a burst of colour and extra flavour. Add the sliced red onion to a small pot with some Pams White Vinegar and a few tablespoons of Pams Brown Sugar and simmer for five minutes before stirring through the salad.
Ingredients
- 1 bag Pams Couscous 500g
- 2 Tbsp cumin seeds
- 3 Pams Carrots, peeled and grated
- 1 Pams Red Onion, finely sliced into rings
- 2 Pams Oranges, sliced into small segments

Method
- Finely dice one of the red onions. Add a big glug of olive oil to a large fry pan over medium heat and add the diced onion, cumin seeds and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the onion is golden and soft.
- Add the couscous to the pan and stir to coat. Pour over 2 cups of boiling water and remove from heat, cover with a lid and leave to steam for at least 5 minutes.
- Uncover the couscous and fluff up with a fork, breaking up any lumps. Leave to cool.
- Place the cooled couscous into a large serving dish and douse generously with olive oil. Mix through the carrot, orange segments, remaining red onion (sliced in rings) and mint.
