ive made this dish twice now. the first time i had a ton of leftovers. the second time i kept all the ingredients the same and halved the couscous. That was PERFECT for us. The flavour is great and a bit sweet which i had to get used to because i don't really like sweet food unless its dessert. i use currents intead of raisens which might be sweeter im not sure. i think the first time i made it i substituted another herb for mint, parsley or coriander i think and that was still good.
