Instructions

1. Cook the couscous in salted water.
2. In the meantime, cut the peppers into small cubes. Chop the apricots, raisins, tomatoes and cranberries into small pieces. Cut the coriander into small pieces. Cut the spring onions into slices. Mix everything with the cooked, still hot couscous. Add the rocket too. The raw ingredients should be warmed up and soft by the still hot couscous.
3. For the sauce, mix the lemon juice, pepper, salt, sugar, vinegar, mustard, onion powder, poppy seeds and oil with the magic wand or in a blender until it becomes a thick sauce.
4. Mix the sauce with the couscous.
5. Serve warm or cold.
6. The salad is also very suitable for using leftovers. You can omit or add a lot, depending on your taste, e.g. some cayenne pepper, or fresh instead of dried tomatoes - only the couscous should be the big Israeli one.
