Maghreb salad with couscous and arugula

6 servings

20 minutes

A great way to put together everything that was in the fridge in the summer: couscous and a ton of herbs and vegetables. The olive oil for this salad should be good, take the best example of extra virgin - fragrant and, for example, with a slight bitterness.
