Couscous, Broccoli, And Asparagus Salad
- 4 servings
- 1 bunch broccoli purple
- 5 stalks asparagus fresh green
- olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons white wine
- 7/8 cup couscous
- salt
- ground black pepper
- ground pepper
- salt
- fennel fresh
- Wash broccoli, and cut off the stalks.
- Cut off the hardest part of the asparagus, wash, and cut into small pieces.
- Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a non-stick frying pan, add garlic cloves, and sear for a few seconds. Add the broccoli, if you feel that is too dry, add another drizzle of olive oil.
- Saute about 4 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Add the asparagus, and saute for 2 more minutes.
- Add the wine, and let it evaporate.
- If you like the broccoli more cooked, put the lid on the pan, and let it cook for a little longer.
- Pour the couscous in a bowl, season with salt, a drizzle of olive oil, and add water until the couscous is covered (don't add more). Place for 1 minute in the microwave at full power, remove, and stir with a fork. If you feel that the couscous is still undercooked, cook for a few more seconds in the microwave until the water evaporates completely.
- Add the couscous to the broccoli, and check the seasonings.
- Garnish with some fennel leaves, and another drizzle of olive oil.
- Serve immediately.
