Thank you for sharing this Turkish favorite, there are variants in the Levant too. Everyone tweaks recipes acc. to taste. My two tips are; I fry the tomato puree in virgin olive oil with the onion because it is easier on my stomach and takes away the raw taste of puree. You can change up the greens (or replace onions with spring onions too) but do not cut short on the mint. Lastly, serve with a bunch of washed ice lettuce leaves, use the leaves like spoons and bite into it, lovely.

This was a hit at a dinner party I hosted, and now it’s in our regular salad rotation! Super easy to customize (I use a quarter of a sweet onion instead for a more mild taste, and put in more tomato purée)

We call this kisir and we saute a onion with the dried herbs and tomato puree and add that to the couscous with some oil. It tastes amazing

Great recipe. I sometimes make a green looking version by mixing the oil, lemon juice, part of the herbs and a garlic clove with a blender into a thick dressing. I also love to add feta, cashew nuts and/or raisins.

I have just made this - it was absolutely delicious . However, my wife is Turkish and waiting for her to come home and taste it for her approval :) ..wish me luck :)

Simple and precise...no technical cooking language...very easily understood...

I do this with spring onions instead of red onions I think it tastes better that way. I also add some pomegranate syrup and a little bit of red pepper paste. Tomatoes make it watery after a while, so if you're not going to finish it all at once I suggest not to put tomatoes ;) Been making this for 14 years, oh and I'm Turkish :)

This recipe is absolutely magical. THANK YOU!

We call it "Kısır" and it's a real summer dish. I really enjoy with plane yogurt and some hot pepper flakes because i love it when it's spicy :))

I love this woman. nice dishes and clear instructions.

I made the salad today and used a little mashed avocado instead of olive oil and it was simply amazing! Thank you so much for the recipe!

[Privateleno]

I've been making this recipe for about 5 years. It's perfect and will wow anyone who needs it. I fricking love this recipe.

Hello from Istanbul Turkey :) as beautiful as this recipe looks, it is not very traditional Turkish kısır (we call this kısır. Here, couscous is more like a round pasta dish) we usually put loads of herbs especially spring onions, and organic pomegranate syrup is a must. we eat tomatoes, cucumber, fresh rocket, and lettuce as a side. Also we add many many spices such as dried sumac, cumin, mints, even cinnamon sometimes. But I will try your recipe as soon as possible, it looks very fresh and yummy, and also very diet friendly :)

We made this tonight. It was SO soooo good. Holy crap. Feta or any crumbly cheese is a MUST!

My husband and I are not fans of tomatoes, but we are trying. We decided to get some baby tomatoes and cut them up into tiny bits. We couldn't taste them at all but still got that nutrition. We're kinda picky about tomatoes, so I'm happy that went well. I was prepared to take them all out!
