Hi Lavi,

Couscous is very easy to prepare. Use a 1 to 2 ratio (couscous to water). Boil water in a pan with lid. Once the water boils, turn off the stove, add in the couscous and a bit of salt, stir, cover and keep for 15 minutes. Open and fluff up with a fork. Add remaining ingredients.

Hello girls,

Tried this just now and could not wait to eat and post comment. Just finished eating in one go and now typing…I have never had such daliya delight. It is healthy and tasty both…a rare combination though!!!

I changed the original recipe a bit. I used couscous instead of daliya and added a bit of roasted cashews and walnuts and sultana raisins along with almonds and pine nuts. I added green peas and sweetcorn too to it. It is out of this world now. Best salad till date I would rather say.

Will be in my take along lunch menu for me and my hubby as it very filling too. No problem untill evening and hence no snacking in between and stacking our tummys with rubbish crisps.

NO WORDS NOT EVEN THANX, TOO CONTENTED TO SPEAK NOW
