  How easy was this? The hardest bit was zesting the lemon. 5-6 minutes and everyone thought it was great.

  Very simple to do and very tasty. I hate raisins (and sultanas) so I chopped up some dried apricots instead - which worked wonderfully well.

  I added a level teaspoon of bouilion to boiling water before adding couscous.
