COUSCOUS WITH OLIVES AND SUN-DRIED TOMATO
A delicate, flavorful dish that will satisfy vegans and carnivores alike! Inspired by my family's deep Coptic Orthodox Christian tradition, this is a great meal alternative during strict fasting times. It contains no animal products or fats, but has enough flavor and visual impact to make you feel like you're not sacrificing a thing! I hope you will enjoy this recipe. Add chicken or prawns to make this vegan dish a carnivorous delight!

Steps:
- Set an oven rack in the top position and preheat the broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place the pepper halves on the prepared baking sheet and broil for 5-10 minutes, rotating the pan once, until well charred. Remove the peppers from the oven and place in a bowl; cover tightly with plastic wrap (so they steam) and let cool until luke warm.
- Peel the skin from the peppers (do not rinse under water) and cut into ¾-inch strips. Place back in the bowl; add the olive oil, red wine vinegar, garlic, 2 tablespoons of the basil, oregano, sugar, salt and pepper. Refrigerate for at least one hour or overnight.
- Heat a small skillet over medium heat. Add the pine nuts and cook, stirring frequently, until golden, about 4 minutes. Immediately transfer the nuts to a small bowl to stop the cooking process. (Pay close attention: they go from perfectly golden to burnt quickly.)
- Transfer the marinated peppers to a serving dish and top with the feta, olives, toasted pine nuts and remaining tablespoon basil (do not toss). Garnish with whole basil leaves if desired.

- Heat the olive oil in a saucepan, add the giant couscous and cook, stirring, over a medium flame until the grains start to turn golden brown in colour - about 4-5 minutes. Turn the flame down to low.
- Add the boiling water to the pan. CAUTION - when you do this it will spit and boil frantically in the hot oil. I shield myself with the pan lid, tip in the water then quickly replace the lid on the pot. After 10-15 seconds or thereabouts things will calm down and you can safely lift the lid and stir the contents.
- Cook the couscous for 4-6 minutes until the water is all absorbed. Then remove from the heat, stir, and leave, covered to cool down.
- While the couscous is cooling, mix the chopped herbs, lemon zest and juice, and hazelnut oil in a bowl large enough to also hold the couscous. Roughly chop the nuts and add to the bowl.
