Ingredients

  • 100g dried couscous
  • 1 tbsp Cooks' Ingredients Zaatar
  • 50g Essential Low Fat Natural Yogurt

  1. Put the couscous and zaatar into a large heatproof bowl and pour over 200ml just-boiled water from the kettle. Cover and leave to soak for 10 minutes.

  2. Meanwhile, for the dressing, put the yogurt, feta, half the lemon juice and 1 tbsp oil into a small food processor with ½ tbsp water and a small pinch of salt. Blend to a creamy, pourable consistency.
