Two step Funghhi couscous salad for work

By July 22, 2010August 1st, 2024No Comments

Well technically ‘two steps’ would mean ‘check menu card and dial takeout place’. But this is almost there. In fact I made it in the morning before coming to work. Quite a feat for an owl. Didn’t photograph it but thought it was worth posting. Especially after having it for lunch. So here goes:

  • Chop 250 g of button mushrooms and put them in a microwave cooking dish
  • Sprinkle a teaspoon of olive oil and a bit paprika sauce and salt, add half a chopped tomato to this. Bung into micro for about 7 minutes
  • Take half a pack (100 g) of dehydrated couscous. You get this in stores which keeps imported food. Add 1/4 cup, 100 ml, boiling water to this and keep it covered for three minutes
  • Add the grilled mushroom mix to this once done
  • Add a few cubes of feta or paneer which gives it a nice salty bite and some fresh chopped herbs. I used basil

Makes a nice and light, easy to eat, fresh, vegetarian and presumably healthy, office lunch. Tastes pretty good too.
