Servings: persons

2 pints red grape
3 large garlic cloves
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup warm water
2 juice lemons
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 3/4 cups chicken broth vegetable broth would be fine too
2 1/4 cups couscous regular or whole wheat
1/2 cup kalamata olives
1 handful fresh flat leaf parsley torn or chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint or torn, again, about a handful
chunk feta cheese
goat cheese

1
Preheat oven to 250 degrees Farenheit
2
Halve tomatoes through stem ends ( from top to bottom, not across the middle) and arrange, cut side up, in one layer in a large, shallow baking pan.
3
Add garlic to pan and roast in the middle of the oven until tomatoes are slightly shriveled around the edges, about 1 hour.
4
Cool in pan on rack for 30 minutes, or until no longer hot.
5
While tomatoes are roasting, bring the broth to a boil in a 3 qt. saucepan. Stir in couscous, let simmer in pan for about two minutes.
6
Cover pan and remove from heat, let stand for 5-10 minutes (or, if you're using boxed couscous, just follow the cooking directions on the package).
7
When couscous has cooled, run your (clean!) hands through it to break up any clumps.
8
When garlic is cool enough to handle, peel it the garlic and using a small knife chop the garlic very finely.
9
Mix the garlic with the olive oil, warm water and the juice of one lemon in a small bowl or liquid measuring cup and whisk until combined.
