Pistachio and date couscous

Couscous has never been this sexy. It makes a perfect accompaniment to roast chicken.

Serves: 2 to 4

Ingredients

2 cups (500ml) couscous

2 cups (500ml) boiling salted water

extra virgin olive oil

Salt and black pepper

50g finely chopped dates

100g chopped pistachios

Method

Cook the couscous in the salted water according to the packet instructions. Fork through, add a drizzle of olive oil and season. Rub between your fingers to separate further, then use your hands to mix in the dates. Mix in the pistachios just before serving.
