Ingredients

  • 1 cup Couscous, dry

  • 1 spoon Butter, unsalted

  • 0.5 teaspoons Salt, table

  • 1 piece Carrot, fresh

  • 1 piece Small pumpkins

  • 2 teaspoons Parsley, fresh

  • 2 pod Garlic, fresh

  • 0.5 cups Cheese, feta

Steps

  1. Pour the couscous into a bowl, lightly salt it, and pour boiling water over it. The boiling water should be enough to cover all the couscous. Cover the bowl and let it sit for about 10 minutes so the couscous absorbs all the liquid. After 10 minutes, add a tablespoon of butter to the bowl and mix well with a fork.

  2. Clean, wash, and dry the vegetables and herbs. Chop everything into small cubes. Pour oil into a pan and heat it well, then sauté the carrots first, followed by the zucchini, then parsley, and finally garlic. Mix everything well. After 10 minutes of sautéing, turn off the heat and mix the ingredients with the couscous. Once the couscous has cooled, mix in the homemade cheese.

  3. Place a heart-shaped mold on the serving plate and tightly pack the couscous salad into it. Carefully remove the mold and serve the salad.
