MANGO & MINT COUS COUS SALAD

I love a good cous cous salad but this one takes it up a notch with its vibrant, summery flavours. Super easy to make and is delicious eaten as a side with grilled chicken or on its own if you’re craving something sweet, fresh and light!

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 and 1/2 Cups Cous Cous – cooked as per packet instructions
  • Half a mango – diced
  • 1 sprig Mint Leaves – finely chopped
  • 1 sprig Coriander Leaves – finely chopped
  • 1/2 a Red Onion – diced
  • 1/2 Red Chili – diced (remove seeds to make it children friendly)

Salad Dressing:

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tsp lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin powder
  • 1/2 tsp honey
  • Salt and blackpepper to taste

HOW TO MAKE IT

  1. Place cooked cous cous, diced mangoes, finely chopped mint leaves and coriander leaves, diced red onion and diced chili in a bowl.
  2. Mix together all the salad dressing ingredients and stir until salt has dissolved.
  3. Pour salad dressing into the salad bowl and mix together until everything is well combined.
  4. Top with mint leaves (optional) before serving. This salad is best served with a side of grilled chicken/fish.
