over the couscous and cover with a plate to
prevent the steam from escaping. Leave to
stand for 5 minutes. Use a fork to separate
the couscous.
2. Blanch the broad beans and asparagus for about 2 minutes. Drain the vegetables and refresh them under running cold water.
3. Squeeze the lemon and add the olive oil to the juice. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, beat until thoroughly mixed and add to the couscous. Add the broad beans, asparagus tips and cherry tomatoes and stir through.
4. Lastly, stir in the feta or goat's milk cheese and mint and serve.
