For the couscous
Place the sumac & cumin scented couscous into a bowl and boil some water (the water has to be double the amount of your couscous so for example: 300ml of water for 150g of couscous). Pour the water over the couscous, add a dash of olive oil and a good grind of salt and pepper then stir with a fork and cover the bowl tightly with glad wrap. Leave to sit for 5-10 minutes. Remove wrap and then begin to fluff the couscous with a fork. Add in the fresh mint and red onion, then dress with the olive oil and lemon juice, toss to combine.
For the merguez
Heat some oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add the merguez sausages and cook for 5-7 minutes turning regularly or until cooked through.
To serve
Serve your delicious merguez sausages with a side of the scented couscous and a spoonful of your favourite chilli sauce, if you desire.
