Step by step

Method

5 steps

1. 1

   Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the couscous and continue to boil for about 5 minutes, or until the couscous is tender. Drain the couscous in a colander or wire strainer. Rinse briefly with cool water to cool off the couscous, then allow to drain while you prepare the rest of the salad.

2. 2

   Zest the lemon and then squeeze the juice. You'll need about ½ tsp of zest and 3 Tbsp of juice.

3. 3

   Add the lemon juice, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and some freshly cracked pepper to a bowl and stir to combine.

4. 4

   Chop the cucumber into quarter-rounds and roughly chop the parsley.

5. 5

   Add the cooled and drained couscous to a large bowl along with the cucumber, parsley, lemon zest, and feta. Pour the dressing over top, then stir to combine. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to eat.
