Ingredients:
• 1 pound 2 ounces (500 grams) couscous
• 2 3/4 ounces (75 grams) golden sultanas
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1 pint 9 fluid ounces (800 ml) freshly boiled water
• salt
• freshly ground black pepper
• 1 pomegranate
• small handful fresh cilantro leaves (coriander), chopped
Directions:
1. • Place the couscous, sultanas, spices and salt into a microwave-proof bowl and mix well. Add the freshly boiled water to the bowl and then cover the bowl with cling film. Leave the mixture to sit for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the water has been absorbed by the couscous. Remove the cling film from the bowl and stir the couscous with a fork to separate the grains. Stir the mixture again and season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Transfer the couscous to a serving dish.
2. • Slice the pomegranate in half and extract a good quarter of the seeds. Place them onto the couscous. Sprinkle the chopped cilantro (coriander) over the top.
