Preparation steps

1.

Mix the couscous, coriander, and cumin in a bowl. Bring 350 ml (approximately 12 ounces) of salt water to a boil, then pour over the couscous. Let soak for 10 minutes, then fluff the couscous with a fork. 

2.

Rinse the pepperoncino and halve lengthwise. Remove the seeds and membranes, and finely dice. Rinse the tomatos, remove the cores, and thinly slice. Rinse and dry the mint. Finely chop halve of the leaves. Thoroughly drain both types of olives.

Mix the pepperoncinos, tomatoes, chopped mint, and the olives into the couscous. Mix in the lemon juice and olive oil, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Garnish with some of the remaining mint, and serve.
