This is a rather interesting recipe, see what you think!
Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups Israeli couscous (which is the larger version of regular couscous, but you can use either one)
1/2 onion
1 clove garlic
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 fresh lemon, squeezed
zest from 1/2 lemon
beef broth (or you can use any broth, even vegetable if vegan)
3-4 fresh tomatoes, chopped
large handful of fresh mint, chopped
1/2 english cucumber, chopped
1/2 cup kimchi, chopped (optional)
How to make:
First, get a large saucepot and coat with 1 tablespoon olive oil, and get it to moderately high heat.
Saute the onions and garlic until translucent, then put in the coucous to get it slightly browned.
Then, pour in the broth, get it to high to boil then, cover and simmer until all the liquid is absorbed.
While it is cooking, chop up all your veggies and herbs (as a small note here, it does originally call for cucumber but the one I had in my fridge went bad...which is why I added kimchi, to give it some 'crunch' ;B)
When the coucous is cooked, fluff and coat with 1 more tablespoon of olive oil; then get in another bowl, stir with all of your veggies...then, throw in the herbs, juice and zest right at the end, add salt and pepper to taste (it really wont need all that much thanks to the broth)
Serve and enjoy!

Well the tabbouli is, in essence, a salad - so you can put in anything you like :)
The traditional way is with lots of tomatoes, onions, and lots and lots of parsley! (also vinegar or lemon for acidity...some use preserved lemon, use that sparingly)
But the key is, it all has to be FRESH or you may as well not bother :B
