    The mint ruined it for me. I've never been a big fan of mint and it made the dish taste odd. It was pretty good apart from that. I am definitely omitting the mint if I make this again.

    Couscous With Herbs and Lemon,A typical North African dish, made delicious with parsley, mint, basil and lemon! A great side to meat dishes. Adapted from Gourmet magazine(July/2003). Due to some reviews I have updated the recipe, adding more garlic and lemon juice.,The mint ruined it for me. I’ve never been a big fan of mint and it made the dish taste odd. It was pretty good apart from that. I am definitely omitting the mint if I make this again.
