Pomegranate Couscous

This dish I found I didn't really like that much, but found I couldn't stop eating it. It was, I guess, quite moreish in a way.

- seeds of 1 pomegranate
- 250g coarse couscous                   
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons cumin seeds
- 2 handfuls parsley
- 1 handful pistachio nuts, crushed
- 1/2 teaspoon sumac
- salt, to taste
- 1 handful pine nuts
1. Prepare couscous according to the packet.

2. In a pan, cook the onion and cumin seeds with the pinch of salt and olive oil, until onion is a golden brown.

3. In a large bowl, combine the couscous, 3/4 of the pomegranate seeds, the mixture from step 2, pistachio nuts, sumac and salt. Toss gently so ingredients are combined. 

4. Serve with pine nuts and remaining pomegranate seeds.
