Broccoli Tabbouleh
A fresh take on the traditional, our Broccoli Tabbouleh is a bright, flavourful dish that makes for a very versatile side!
Ingredients:
½ cup couscous
1 large broccoli head
1 ½ cups fresh parsley
½ cup fresh mint leaves
1 small red onion
1 garlic clove (minced)
3 Tbsp olive oil
2 Tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
½ tsp salt
Serves: 4 | Prep & Cook Time: 35 Minutes
Method
Prepare the couscous according to packet directions. Once done, fluff the couscous with a fork, cover, and set aside.
Cut the broccoli into small pieces and place the florets into a food processor. Pulse until the broccoli is in small pea-sized pieces.
Heat a deep-fry pan over a medium heat. Add a few tablespoons of water to the pan then add in the finely chopped broccoli and cover. Steam the broccoli for around 1 min, then remove the cover and continue cooking, stirring the whole time. Remove pan from heat once done.
Finely chop the parsley and mint leaves, or process in a food processor.
Add the cooked couscous, broccoli, herbs and finely chopped red onion into a mixing bowl. Toss to combine. For the dressing, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, salt and garlic. Mix everything well, then serve!
