Ingredients
1
1/2 cups couscous (10 oz)
16
oil-cured black olives, pitted and coarsely chopped
1/3
cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1
1/2 tsp finely grated fresh lemon zest
Directions
1.
Cook garlic in oil in a 2- to 3-quart wide heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring frequently, until golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add water and salt and bring to a boil. Stir in remaining ingredients, then cover pan and remove from heat. Let stand, undisturbed, 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
3.
Taste your olives before you start cooking; if they are very salty, reduce the salt in this recipe.
